Date/Time - Initializing Install...
Date/Time - Microsoft.VisualStudio.ExtensionManager.InvalidExtensionPackageException:
The file is not a valid VSIX package. ---> System.IO.FileFormatException: File contains corrupted data.
```
## Cause
During the download and installation processes some antivirus programs and firewalls block or delete some of the files that are included in the **{{site.ab}}.vsix** archive.
## Solution
To resolve the issue, try the following solutions:
* Download the [VSIX package for the {{site.ab}} extension for Visual Studio](http://cdn.icenium.com/live/vs/AppBuilder.vsix) using a different network.
* Stop your antivirus program/firewall during the download and installation processes.
Now you should be able to install the {{site.ab}} extension for Visual Studio.
