That message usually means that the file's download did not complete successfully. It likely got corrupted. Put the file into the Trash and empty it. Then do another download. If you keep getting problems, switch from Wi-Fi to a wired Ethernet connection which will be much faster and less likely to cause corruption than Wi-Fi.
