Maya issue

So I was following the instructions to download maya but however when I double clicked on the user setup.py icon a black screen appeared then disappeared in a split second.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thank you

This may be a silly reply but, did you run the setup as admin? the black screen does appear before the setup continues, but it sounds like something is blocking it from starting. Windows 10 possibly? try to enable the setup through your windows firewall perhaps, or turn off any firewalls you currently have running. If that doesn’t help, check the site for any prerequisite programs you may need before installing maya.

the userSetup.py is a python script file and maya will automatically source it on startup. You need to make sure .py files open with the proper editor.
