Office 2016 for Mac - Can't get past "Verifying 'Microsoft_Office_2016_Installer.pkg'"

Just purchased Office 2016 for Mac via download.  Trying to install; stuck on "Verifying 'Microsoft_Office_2016_Installer.pkg'" for 2 hours now.  Has this happened to anyone else?  Any solutions?

Thank you for any help you can offer!
