Boggin:
Are you able to download any other programs ?

Not sure if any of these suggestions will help, but have you tried a different browser such as Firefox ?

Yes; and I have no problem downloading the installers; they just don't execute once opened: they hang.
Have no problems downloading anything.
I have tried downloading on one computer, copying it to a flash drive, then copying it onto the computer I want it on, then trying to run.
I know the installer for Particle shop does run on my win 10 laptop, but that's not where I want it installed (my computer for photo work is more powerful; the laptop has only 2gig ram and a less that I3 processor).
SO again, it points to something on my machine, but can't figure out what unless it is the graphics card or driver.
At some point, I will enable to internal video, disable the graphics card, reboot, and try that.
Thought you might have another option to try.

Boggin:
Safe Mode with Networking will isolate your main graphics and use the onboard VGA.

That mode will also isolate any 3rd party programs as well as your AV program, so not sure what is baulking it.

Have you tried a different browser or reset IE to defaults ?

hdrabkin:
I had disabled the driver for the integrated  video  ; the monitor is attached to the graphics card output, not the box's onboard output.
(e, onboard intel graphics has a different monitor jack than the Nvida graphics card.).
Do you mean safemode uses a generic vga driver?

Boggin:
It does on a laptop, that is why the graphics are enlarged, but I understand that with a desktop pc you sometimes have to plug the monitor into a dedicated VGA jack.

However, if you get the usual enlarged graphics when booting into Safe Mode then it will be using an on board VGA - at least that is my understanding of a desktop.
