@sasikumarthechamp - Sorry to hear you are having problems with Omniverse. What browser are you using? Did any browser page pop up? Could it be hidden/minimized?

Can you try to have Chrome as your default if not already?

@mrrice - I also have Chrome set as my default browser. I am on Win 10 19042.1110. My log file looks very similar. I’m concerned about the first error, installers.json not existing. What would cause this? Trying to solve my errors top down. I am able to hit the external json resources in a browser.

Also, when I try to add the proxy server parameter to the Omniverse shortcut’s Target (after the exe). I get an error stating the Target box is not valid. Windows does not seem to like the --proxy-server=server:port format??
