I disabled my antivirus. I was using Mozilla to download but I just used Chrome and was finally able to download version 13. 

But, the installer screen still doesn't appear.  It asks if I want the file to make changes on my computer. I click yes then nothing happens.

I was able to download both the Windows 10's Postgres 13 and Postgres
12.4 installers. I didn't get any error, so I suspect the errors you are
seeing (both download failed and the lack of the installation screen)
may be due to your antivirus blocking the installers.

Are you using any antivirus? If so, would you consider disabling them
while downloading and installing Postgres? EnterpriseDB is one of the
top companies in the Postgres services industry, so I don't think they
may have introduced any malware in their installers.

Could you please also tell us which browser are you using for
downloading the installers?

By the way, please remember to CC the mailing list when replying.
Otherwise, only I will receive your answer.
