Cannot download ColdFusion Builder

Question

I have been trying to downoload the Builder from the linke https://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion-builder/download-trial/try.html, but I am just sent do a "Get Started" page, and nothing downloads.

I have been in contact with customer support via the chat for four days and no progress has been made. When I said the product was ColdFusion Buiilder, I was connected to the photography department.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can make progress?

You're not alone. There is a solution. See my post:

Let us know if that works for you. I hope someday someone from Adobe just fixes the damn problem.

I had the same problem, but found a different solution. I am using Chrome (the company's officially sanctioned browser). I opened up the dev tools, to see what the errors had to say (screenshot follows).

The problem is that the Adobe site is using SSL - https, naturally. But the link to the actual EXE file is unencrypted (ie, http://), and Chrome really gets upset and blocks the content when you mix and match on a page, esp. when the resource being retrieved is an EXE.

So I copied the URL out of the error message, and pasted in a new browser window, and voila.

'http://trials.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CB/3_2/win64/ColdFusionBuilder_2018_WWEJ_win64.exe'

I went looking for a form to send the info into Support, but no such luck. Oh well.
