Because Windows preserves the filename, you can see that you have downloaded turtle_art-48.xo whereas Sugar uses some other process to name the downloaded file and its very hard to understand why you have v48 rather than v51 installed.

Actually, it was a bad symlink unrelated to the Journal. No need for a

should reveal the actual filename of the file being downloaded.\
