Hi Gordon, My point was that this behavior is a unique problem with the installer app in particular, and does not seem to occur with other Mac App Store downloads. I mean to say that any other app downloaded from the store can be executed whenever, and will not mysteriously vanish if it hasn't been when the store is closed. Best, Zack.
