Hey everyone, I've been trying to get windower to work for quite some time now, and I've run out of ideas. I keep getting this crash every time it opens and tries to start downloading.

I think he's saying that Windower crashes when it tries to download updates, not that he can't download Windower itself.

I use firefox, and Subadai is correct, i have the file downloaded. I made the windower4 folder where it's suppose to be. When i double click the icon, it greets me with a windower4 window, 3 secs later, crash. I'm assuming it's not connecting to start downloading all the files. I have my firewall off and all antivirus protection off.

Hello!

This was actually happening to me a week ago when I tried moving my computer to my TV - the reason for me was that I manually set my desktop scaling (under NVIDIA Control Panel > Adjust Desktop Size and Position > Scaling). Once I changed it back to "No Scaling" it would then load fine! I'd tried pretty much everything prior to that!

Hope that works for you. :)
