When you start VST Transit, a page should appear “Log in to VST Transit”. The top field is “MySteinberg E-Mail”, right? You can enter a @ charcater there, all else would be very strange.
Then after you logged in there, and given that you have not done so yet, you will be led to a second page where you are asked to provide a user Name for VST Transit.
Did VST Transit succeed to ever download a new version? It should, and you should not cancel this (if that is possible at all). Click on the bottom right “VST Transit” text and an about box should come up. On the bottom, the version number is displayed. What does it say?
I find it particularily confusing that you say “it keeps downloading”, do you mean it attempts to download every time? If so, does it not succeed to do so? That might explain a lot, but then the question is if you messed around with the installation or why your system prevents the download to succeed because of whatever reasons. I guess there should be a message then?

It downloads VST Transit the first time I run it after starting Cubase, subsequent times it runs the downloaded version until Cubase is restarted. The download seems to work fine and then VST Tranist is started. It always runs version 1.0.0, and no, neither entering, or copy pasting an @ sign is possible. (Copy-pasting simply removes the @ and entering an @ has no effect on the content of the input box.)

I have not touched the installation, merely upgraded from 8 to 8.5. The installation was done with all the default options.
