After not being able to preload the game via the Gog Galaxy app due to a "server error", I am now attempting to download it via the GoG website but it keeps asking me for a Witcher installer file. I am not sure where to find this file or why the server error keeps happening. This will be the first game I am trying to download via the Gog company and so far I am convinced it will be the last.

You need to download all 7 parts before running the setup.

It asks for the installer file and says I cannot continue without it.

I have it downloading via the GoG downloader through a link that says "GoG downloader Links"(not the Galaxy app which still does not work for some reason), but it is just one file that is 25.1 GB. Do I download the other 6 parts after this? A better question would be "Is it always this difficult? If I buy it through Amazon or Game stop I can just insert cd and click install. Through Steam I just click puchase and install."

GOG Downloader will download all 7 parts, you will only need to download the 1.01 patch manually. Separate links are for those who would prefer to DL through a browser.

So, if you used Downloader, do you have all seven files (1x .exe and 6x .bin) in one folder? Or is the download still running?

Downloader is still running it says it is downloading the Witcher 3 Wild hunt installer and patch 1.01. But the file size is only 21.95gb.

Then let it finish before trying to install the game ;)

I figured that. I didn't realize this was an option until this morning. Last night I kept trying to install it via the Galaxy app.

Once the downloader finishes, you will see all installation files in one folder. no need to download the others. Like I wrote before, separate download links are for those, who would prefer to not use the GOG Downloader.

Manually? What about [url=http://gogdownloader://the_witcher_3_wild_hunt/en1patch1]this link[/url]. You can also feed it to Downloader.

I was wrong. Looks like Downloader grabs both installer and relevant patches by default.
