I downloaded Sierra. The install failed saying download corrupt. App Store still says downloaded but there is no install button and I cannot download again.
What do I do?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, 10.11.6
Apps downloaded from the App Store: Click the Launchpad icon in the Dock, hold down an app’s icon until all the icons begin to jiggle, then click an app’s delete button. If you later want the app, you can reinstall it from the App Store.

Brilliant! All done and dusted now. Thanks for your help. If only things had been this simple on LEO III!
cheers.
Exactly the same thing has happened to me. My only problem is that the app isn't showing in the Applications folder, and I have no idea where else it can be. The app is still showing as "downloaded" in the App Store app. Grrr....
Ah... got it now. The app is called "install Mac OSX Sierra". I deleted it and can now download again from the App store.
Guess I'm a bit myopic for not spotting that.
i followed till here... yet still unable to download, says already downloaded... Launch pad shows progress band below, however macOS icon in launch pad greyed out... can't trash... progress band shows 100%
App Store says "Install"...
completely stumped...
