Done! fantastic!!! Thanks c0ff

thanks for the advice. will do

I have tried to install DCS World on my brand new iMac 27" (with Windows 8 Pro) and 21" (with Windows 7 Ultimate) and both unsuccessfull (both after installation of the Kaspersky Endpoint Security 8). this morning i installed DCS World on my old iMac 24" (with Windows 7 Home Advance) with nothing installed and it works. I guess it is the antivirus! and not on the windows version. I need to resinstall the whole Windows 8 and losing all other games progress.

Did you faced any problems before it runs properly? I got the waiting for DB lock issue!

Thanks c0ff How to check if the DCS has the permissions? Open folder properties and uncheck the read only? There is no autoupdate.lock but there are:- a) autoupdate.cache in the DCS folder b) autoupdate.setting in the config folder; and c) autoupdate.txt and autoupdate.log.old in the logs folder I have deleted items (a) and (b) but it works still the same. I have the DVD version A-10C installed and running. may this causing the problem? Thanks

I am new to DCS. I have installed the A-10C in the Windows 8 Pro and they work fine. I want to play all the modules and downloaded the latest DCS World. After the installation of the DCS World, a small window popped up saying it is "waiting for DB lock". After a couple of minutes another window appeared telling me "another updater is being carried out". I have all the latest drivers installed and these error messages reappear each time I tried to launch the DCS World. Frustrating!! I had tried running as the administrator and also in the W7 compatible mode but in vain. Any solutions? Thanks
