My installation is very slow

There is no way to speed up the installation process, however, if you continue to have any problems with the installation, please contact our customer support.

If the installer is moving slowly, it may be because of the following:

  • You have a slower download speed on your internet connection.

Check the product page for the File Size:

If the file size is large, the product may need more time to install. In this case, we recommend just to wait. An installer should not take any more than 30 minutes in an extreme case. In most cases, it can take anywhere between 1-15 minutes to install a plugin depending on it’s size and your internet speed.

Your connection may be downloading the plugin very slowly from our server.

Restart your router or connect to it directly from an ethernet cable.

Then restart the installer.

Locate the folder named PFS-Download.

If you are missing the folder, create a new folder and name it “PFS-Download”.

Then restart the PFS APP and try to install again.
