I'm trying to do a fresh install of TinyTeX on my system, and I'm getting errors each way I try. In all cases, the download aborts at the same spot: about 80% of the way through. I've tried:

- `tinytex::install_tinytex()` in the R console
- `quarto install tinytex` in GitBash
- `quarto install tinytex` in Powershell.

Has this happened/is this happening to anyone else?

Disclaimer: I'm on a windows machine.

@capbri it would help to know the error too. But I don't have a Windows machine so I won't be of much help

@capbri Is there an error message? That sounds like you're probably hitting the (surprisingly low) default timeout of 60 seconds. See ?download.file for details, but I have R_DEFAULT_INTERNET_TIMEOUT=20000 in my .Renviron so downloads only time out when I say they should.
