So it successfully caches the installer and gets it to the _Download directory. However when it tries to execute the installer it fails.

22

Also, it looks like the NPP installer is now stuck in that same _Download directory.

Oh and I forgot to mention that the fixlet actually "failed"
So at least it didn’t get stuck “Pending Downloads” again.

23

Well, I deleted that installer from the _Download directory and gave my original fixlet a go.
It completed and actually installed Notepad++ this time around.

I’m guessing that there was something wonky going on with the OBS Studio installer that was stuck in that folder before. It had a process that was still running trying to access that installer.

I appreciate everyone’s quick responses and help. Great community.
Thank you everyone. =)

That is the usual reason for that particular message. It might be good to file an RFE to get that particular error to propagate back to the server as not being able to start an action because a previous binary is locking the directory is a problem and its not obvious that this has happened apparently.
