Official Download Link from obsidian.md is currently broken

[gibraltar]

This is the situation at least for me at the moment this post goes live.
I’m not using the official bug report template since this is just a typo.

For me it’s not possible to download the Obsidian installer from the official website.
Only a direct Github download is possible.

---

Step 1

Navigate to the official download page: Download - Obsidian

E.g. via Obsidian 1.6.5 Desktop (Public) - Obsidian

Step 2

Click the Download for Windows button.

Step 3

Problem: 404 error from Github

---

Reason

There is a typo at least in the .exe file for Windows:

https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases/releases/download/v1.6.5/Obsidian.1.6.5.exe
(Link from official website with “.”, Download - Obsidian)

https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases/releases/download/v1.6.5/Obsidian-1.6.5.exe
(Link from github assets with “-”, Releases · obsidianmd/obsidian-releases · GitHub)

Solution

Adapt file name or linked file.

We are literally in the process of releasing a new version.

I see.

Just got the mail notification via Github that lishid released a new version, that’s why I was on it so fast.
