Error download ESP2866 2.7.4

I'm trying to download this board version 2.7.4 and I'm getting errors

the links that i tried to put in preferences is here
https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/releases/download/2.7.4/package_esp8266com_index.json
https://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json

i also tried manually downloading the zip file in github and tried to put in appdata/arduino 15 yet i don't have the files for tools anyone can help me

the reason why i wanted to use 2.7.4 is I;m using library that is deprecated to the latest version of esp8266

Does it say which file is the one with the CRC mismatch?

Which operating system are you using? From the "appdata" I can guess Windows but I don't like to make assumptions.

I recommend removing this one:
https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/releases/download/2.7.4/package_esp8266com_index.json
There is no need for that. All the releases are in the other one.
