HiJack Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Try renaming your DCS user folder. And just to be sure, what OS are you running?
HiJack Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Also delete all files in this folder (skip files that are read only when message appears): C:\Users\Qamar\AppData\Local\Temp\

sniperwolfpk5 Posted August 23, 2014 Author Posted August 23, 2014 Thank you very much guys for your help. I solved the problem. It was causing by my antivirus it was not exiting properly and it won't let the game update. By the way for other ppl i am using Kaspersky Anti virus 6.0. At first i pause protection but that won't work then i fully exited my antivirus and that did the job. Thx guys Win10, Intel 3rd Gen.

Actually i tried every possible way that come to my mind from last 7 days. I did disable my antivirus but it don't work. After exiting my antivirus it did the trick :) Win10, Intel 3rd Gen.

Azrayen Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) Hi, I got the same error message if my security software (KIS) is active. Turn off antivirus but without any luck AFAIK, that is not enough (for me), I have to turn off the whole security suite to be able to upgrade DCS World. I haven't check if I can pinpoint which part of the security soft is preventing DCS upgrade, but my advice would be not to stick with your AV "only": try and turn off other security features (such as firewalls, windows defender... and so on). I can confirm that I got the same error as you had in my log if I forget to turn off KIS. I would disregard the file itself: it's not the issue, it's just that for upgrading to 1.2.10 I guess it's just the first file to get.

Cheers Az' [edit] Cross posting... just read after posting you got it working; happy for that, and happy for confirmation security sofware (Kaspersky in particular) is the issue :) FWIW, with KIS (not KAV), I only have to disable "general protection" (meaning all protection modules), I don't need to close the exe or something like that.

Azrayen Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 sniperwolfpk5, hear me out: I have no problem for upgrading DCS World. Don't try to help me, my DCS is up-to-date, thank you very much. When I said I had (had) the same issue, that was because I was trying to help you because I'm aware (for a long time now) of issues with Kasperky softwares. ;) Finally, regarding your last post: As I said in my edit 2 posts earlier: with KIS (not KAV), I only have to disable "general protection" (meaning all protection modules), I don't need to close the exe or something like that. But again, we don't have the exact same Kaspersky software, so it's quite possible they behave a little differently :)
BitMaster Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Sometimes, depending on version & brand, it is NOT enough to "deactivate" the real-time protection service, sometimes only complete deinstall & reboot will cure what you described. The reason is the low-level filter drivers that all real-time scanners need. Dazuko... one of the magic words in real-time protection.... nightmares ..... ;) TBH, ALL those Virus Scanners do cause just as much trouble and cost as they try to safe you from. Keep it basic, free of charge, simple....and simple to de-re-install for any case. After paying thousands of Euros over the years for Server and Client AV-licenses I tend to make more backups and rather risk the infection than throwing thousands against a foe I ultimately can't control anyways. Or even better, avoid MS where possible,, Mac..Linux... whenever work allows.

You don't need to restart your system. What i think it is your antivirus. Windows defender is your antivirus. You need to turn windows defender off. First pause the protection and then quit windows defender. then try to update your game. I was facing issue from 1.2.8 and then same issue on 1.2.9. I am not sure if the trick will work for version 1.2.7. But i am confident if you get same error then this is caused by protection system (antivirus, mailware etc) Win10, Intel 3rd Gen.
