razorseal Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Haven't played in a few months and attempted to update the game. It asked if I want to update from 1.2.5 to 1.2.7.... I attempted to do it and now I'm getting an error that says: Can't run E:\DCS World\bin/Launcher.exe(2) The system cannot find the file specified any help? I would hate to uninstall and reinstall!!! I have like 5 modules I'll have to re-install :(
ENO Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Module manager makes it very easy. My suggestion is dump the whole thing... Backup your user / saved games / dcs folder but frankly the key assignments etc have changed so much they don't advise copying them over. Sorry man but that's the safest play- its worth it.

Try running the Launcher.exe right from the DCS folder maybe. it actually deleted the launcher.exe and failed to update it. Oh well... I guess I'll just do a fresh install.

ENO Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Uh- from 125 to 127 guys? I think it'll take more than a repair. He fixes it then won't it Just tell him he can't update from that version anyway? "ENO" Type in anger and you will make the greatest post you will ever regret. "Sweetest's" Military Aviation Art

ENO Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) Okay maybe that's changed. I've had older versions installed that I couldn't update because they were too old. If that's no longer a problem then I'll reverse my take on it and gladly be corrected. What I will add in doing so- however- is its best to do a clean install which each major version (ie 124 /25 /26 / 27 etc) than an update... Granted that's only from my experience but I've always had troubles upgrading through a version. Always went for a reinstall.

Guess it depends on how fubar'd his install is, but if it updated to 1.2.7 and wont start it should try and repair 1.2.7 Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**

ED Team c0ff Posted February 19, 2014 ED Team Posted February 19, 2014 Updating from 1.2.5 to 1.2.7 go just fine. In this particular case, I'd like to see autoupdate.log from Saved Games\DCS\Logs.
