Is your computer setup to allow installation of 'untrusted' programs or programs outside the App Store?

yes, that's allowed.
Previously installed the app but today i face some connection issues with the previously installed app. Then I uninstall and try to install the app again and facing this issue.

Maybe it is related to the general connection problem?
At the moment some servers seem to be down, at least in germany.

Hmm, @nayeeenaa I was able to use dmg2img to successfully decompress/convert the DMG file, so I don't think(?) it's broken. I don't have a Mac to test proper installation though...

And as @SeriForte, the connection issues you had are related to #4308 and other such issues that have come up here recently (basically: servers are down/intermittent). However, I don't think the installation problem is related to that.

@chiraag-nataraj Agree with you, I also think the installation problem is not related to the connection issue.

It looks like I am able to install it successfully after resolving the #4308 issue.
