Everyone, thank you for all help and assistance, it is greatly appreciated, however it seems that this issue is not going to stop even if I keep trying to fix it. I've decided that the easiest way to (hopefully) fix this is to just reinstall DCS. Once again, thank you everyone for the help.

Well when I attempt to delete the file, it states that it's open in another program. I don't have it open currently so I'll try to see what is open. Currently nothing is open related to DCS, I still can't delete it, not sure what's going on.

I might just have to reinstall at this point, not sure that I can do much to fix this.

Logs are attached. autoupdate_log.txt

Repairs are successful, they don't do anything however, updates fail 100% of the time with errors and logs.

I changed and restarted, it saved.

I cleaned out the steam directory. I also renamed DCS and deleted the variant file, however when I launch it it launches in windowed mode with a different background. Currently for the access rights, it looks very similar to the ones in the screenshot in your reply, should SYSTEM be the owner? Currently my account is the owner.

@sleighzyI've excluded every folder or file that I know of related to DCS and its install. I've also repaired multiple times. I have reviewed the ownership as well, they are all owned by me. It is via the launcher. I attempted to update via commandline, it comes up with an error. There is a log of the update. It is attached. autoupdate_log.txt

I ran it again, no new log files were created in the directory so those might be the right ones, the text from the update logs is below though. 00000.177 --- Log file: C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\autoupdate_log.txt 00000.000 === Log opened UTC 2024-10-01 20:32:16 00000.024 INFO : DCS_Updater/2.17.1.4 (Windows NT 10.0.22631; Win64; en-US) 00000.024 INFO : src-id: eb7967df909cd6f4702cc6ada45298e5f2f5ebe0, lib-id: b88ea51ae2210987a3865f77cc1802548216d7a8 00000.026 INFO : cmdline: "C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS_updater.exe" --quiet apply e3b98f1c-fee6-450a-8689-1fdfa4aff6bd 15740 00000.091 STATUS: Initializing... 00000.171 INFO : basedir: C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta 00000.171 INFO : variant: openbeta 00000.176 INFO : Command: update 2.9.8.1107 00000.177 INFO : DCS/2.9.7.59263 (x86_64; EN; WORLD,UH-1H,P-51D,MIG-21BIS,RAZBAM_AV8BNA,F-16C,FA-18C,SU-33,F-15C,HEATBLUR_F-14,MARIANAISLANDS_terrain,SUPERCARRIER,CAUCASUS_terrain,A-10A,AJS37,A-10C,A-10C_2,AH-64D,RAZBAM_F-15E,PERSIANGULF_terrain,SU-27,BALTICDRAGON_FA18C_RAVEN_ONE_campaign,HEATBLUR_F-4E) 00000.177 INFO : branch: openbeta 00000.178 STATUS: Downloading version info... 00000.826 STATUS: Verifying installed files... 00021.649 INFO : 0 files are changed or missing. 00023.641 STATUS: Preparing download... 00024.346 STATUS: Checking downloads... 00025.400 STATUS: Scanning existing files... 00025.427 INFO : To download: 0 bytes in 0 files 00025.427 STATUS: Searching for local copies... 00025.455 INFO : Found 1 local source(s). 00025.455 INFO : Local source: c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\ 00025.455 INFO : To copy from local: 0 bytes in 0 files 00025.507 INFO : To download: 0 bytes in 0 files 00025.612 STATUS: Removing obsolete files... 00025.930 ERROR: Can't delete C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/edCore.dll: (5) Access is denied. 00025.930 INFO : Sleeping for 0.100000 seconds... 00026.041 ERROR: Can't delete C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/edCore.dll: (5) Access is denied. 00026.041 STATUS: Got CANCEL when asked to retry: Can't delete C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/edCore.dll: (5) Access is denied. 00026.048 STATUS: Can't delete C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/edCore.dll: (5) Access is denied. 00026.133 === Log closed. It seems similar to the other ones to me, but I don't know anything about logs so I'm probably wrong.

No luck once again with the update.I did change the launcher to DCS.openbeta_old and repaired then updated, still didn't fix anything.

These are new screenshots of my directories in case I've done something wrong. Not sure why but my DCS.openbeta directory in saved games is very different than usual.

Unfortunately I got no luck doing that and updating, it still came up with logs, they are very long for some reason compared to the other ones

I just attempted the repair, it states that all of the files in the new eagle dynamics directory are "not needed for the current operation". Should I delete these?

@MAXsennaI do not have DCS installed in steam. I've not had it installed in steam for a very long time. I'll do what you said and see how it goes.

null@sleighzy, I've attached a screenshot of the directory. @MAXsenna, I moved the folder to the location and repaired, I attempted to update again but it still came up with different error logs. 00000.193 --- Log file: C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\autoupdate_log.txt 00000.000 === Log opened UTC 2024-10-01 18:16:40 00000.038 INFO : DCS_Updater/2.17.1.4 (Windows NT 10.0.22631; Win64; en-US) 00000.039 INFO : src-id: eb7967df909cd6f4702cc6ada45298e5f2f5ebe0, lib-id: b88ea51ae2210987a3865f77cc1802548216d7a8 00000.041 INFO : cmdline: "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS_updater.exe" --quiet apply 60e98a15-1df7-4742-8626-782c203f17a6 35432 00000.108 STATUS: Initializing... 00000.187 INFO : basedir: C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta 00000.188 INFO : variant: openbeta 00000.192 INFO : Command: update 2.9.8.1107 00000.194 INFO : DCS/2.9.7.59263 (x86_64; EN; WORLD,UH-1H,P-51D,MIG-21BIS,RAZBAM_AV8BNA,F-16C,FA-18C,SU-33,F-15C,HEATBLUR_F-14,MARIANAISLANDS_terrain,SUPERCARRIER,CAUCASUS_terrain,A-10A,AJS37,A-10C,A-10C_2,AH-64D,RAZBAM_F-15E,PERSIANGULF_terrain,SU-27,BALTICDRAGON_FA18C_RAVEN_ONE_campaign,HEATBLUR_F-4E) 00000.194 INFO : branch: openbeta 00000.195 STATUS: Downloading version info... 00000.807 STATUS: Verifying installed files... 00020.142 INFO : 0 files are changed or missing. 00022.020 STATUS: Preparing download... 00022.635 STATUS: Checking downloads... 00023.696 STATUS: Scanning existing files... 00023.726 INFO : To download: 0 bytes in 0 files 00023.727 STATUS: Searching for local copies... 00023.753 INFO : Found 1 local source(s). 00023.753 INFO : Local source: c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\ 00023.753 INFO : To copy from local: 0 bytes in 0 files 00023.804 INFO : To download: 0 bytes in 0 files 00023.907 STATUS: Removing obsolete files... 00024.205 ERROR: Can't delete C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/edCore.dll: (5) Access is denied. 00024.205 INFO : Sleeping for 0.100000 seconds... 00024.312 ERROR: Can't delete C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/edCore.dll: (5) Access is denied. 00024.312 STATUS: Got CANCEL when asked to retry: Can't delete C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/edCore.dll: (5) Access is denied. 00024.319 STATUS: Can't delete C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt/edCore.dll: (5) Access is denied. 00024.419 === Log closed.

@MAXsenna, thanks for the input. When I first installed DCS I installed it through steam, a short while after that I installed it through standalone and uninstalled it on steam. My initial standalone version was stable and a little while after I switched to openbeta. I have used only standalone for about a year and a half, and it’s always worked so not sure why all of a sudden this happened. One thing is that the first time I attempted installing the update, it said things about F-4 files being not needed and a lot of other files. I gotta get to sleep, so I’ll try what you said tomorrow. But as I said above, I’ve never had any issues like this before, and I’ve had it installed like this for about 2 years. It seemed really weird the first time it happened. @sleighzy @Rudel_chw I also have never had issues with dcs and antivirus. I’ll definitely make sure DCS is not having issues with antivirus though once I get to checking it tomorrow. Thanks for the assistance. @TKhaos Thanks for the input as well. I’ll try what you said tomorrow like I told the other people. A potential reason that the saved games folder is like that is I have installed games from Xbox and steam in that location in the past.

Greetings, I have tried multiple times to install the new update (2.9.8.1107), however each time that I finish the update I get log data.

I have tried running repairs, cleanups, uninstalling all mods, and using different shortcuts. It happens using both the launcher to update and the dcs updater app. I also do have enough space (barely) on my drive to install the update. I do have the openbeta version installed, though the unified version was released a while ago so maybe that is an issue. Thank you in advance for any help.

I'm experiencing this as well. For me, it happens about 40% of the time, and repairing the game has not fixed the issue. I have no mods or tacview installed.

I've noticed this as well. I don't have any mods or tacview installed. I can only hear the nozzle sound, no engine sounds. EDIT: I am able to hear engine sounds of other F-15Es when they are on the ground, but the sounds stop when the player is airborne.

This happens to me as well. It doesn't happen all of the time, about 50%. I don't have any mods or tacview installed.

I don't think this fixes it, at least it hasn't for me. I've tried reducing it to 1 thread, it didn't work. I also tried increasing it to 12 threads and that didn't work either. It is possible that results will vary for other people, however.

This happens to me as well. It crashes in Multi-threading and Single-threading. No mods are installed, tacview isn't installed either.
