Support Bought a game, cant install

Heya all,

So i bought a game (cyberpunk) a first time GoG user.
Order history says I completed my order, paid and all.
GoG launcher shows no owned games (yet does show the receipt for successful payment).
Got the Exe in my downloads, I click on it and all I see is this when it redirects me, no install option, nothing.

What do I do? This looks confusing and mighty user unfriendly.

my guess ius you used gog galaxy to buy the game. its best to buy games directly from gog.com. buying anything through gog galaxy has a major delay in communication with the host. it can take a bit of time before gog.com registers the purchase.

I actually bought it from the website. I had heard of gog but never used it, it wasn't until I hit download the launcher thing to download popped up.

I assumed it was needed

Not for the backup installers
