Alright, I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction. I've shut down any virus protection, and tried running DCS Updater as Administrator (not sure that's how to solve User Permissions, but seemed a good place to start), and still the same problem. I've also gone into Properties, Security and checked User Permissions for both your program, and DCS itself. In both cases, I've verified either my user has full permission, or if not.....set it to full permission to test. Still, no dice. I realize this is outside the scope of being an issue with your program, but might you have some ideas I could try to make this work properly? Appreciate it.

Hi. Having a problem after a complete Win10 reformat, DCS reinstall, DCS Updater reinstall, etc. Never had this problem, before the reformat and reinstall, all was working flawlessly. Whenever I try to launch DCS through the Updater (any of the options, VR On, VR Off, etc), I get an error "Important files are damaged: dcs_manifest.bin". I've tried deleting the file, doing a Clean and Repair (multiple times). Still get the same error. Oddly, if I just use the game DCS.exe shortcut, the game will launch with no problems. I also get this same error trying to launch the game through the VRKneeboard interface. Any ideas? Thanks! EDIT: Here's the log file I get when I try to launch the game. === Log opened UTC 2020-09-27 15:05:03 2020-09-27 15:05:03.270 ALERT SECURITYCONTROL: Failed to parse root_manifest! 2020-09-27 15:05:03.270 WARNING SECURITYCONTROL: IC fail: dcs_manifest.bin 2020-09-27 15:05:03.271 INFO DCS: Command line: "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS.exe" 2020-09-27 15:05:03.271 INFO DCS: DCS/2.5.6.55363 (x86_64; Windows NT 10.0.18362) 2020-09-27 15:05:03.271 INFO DCS: DCS revision: 175362 2020-09-27 15:05:03.271 INFO DCS: Renderer revision: 20900 2020-09-27 15:05:03.271 INFO DCS: Terrain revision: 20771 2020-09-27 15:05:03.271 INFO DCS: CPU cores: 6, threads: 12, System RAM: 32710 MB, Pagefile: 4864 MB === Log closed.
