SkateZilla Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) Impossible I have no other available partition and steam tells me that he can created only a steam file by partition .... The Tempfix is to Move the Sim's Folder outside of any Folder w/ "(" ")" Characters (ie /Program Files (x86)/ ) If you cannot do that right now, your 2 options are: 1. Wait for the hotfix to be released. 2. revert back to Release Branch. When Opting into Any Open Beta, problems may arise that will limit usage, that's part of being in a Beta Program. Also, You could Cut/Paste the /Program Files (x86)/Steam/SteamApps/Common/DCS World/ to C:/DCS World/ and create an mklink using: Command Prompt as Admin: mklink /j "C:\DCS World" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\DCS World" Edited April 27, 2018 by SkateZilla Windows 10 Pro, Ryzen 2700X @ 4.6Ghz, 32GB DDR4-3200 GSkill (F4-3200C16D-16GTZR x2), ASRock X470 Taichi Ultimate, XFX RX6800XT Merc 310 (RX-68XTALFD9) 3x ASUS VS248HP + Oculus HMD, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS + MFDs

zoupou Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I steam possibly trying to re-install (to the original location) after you moved it maybe ? How did you move it ? I moved it manually. I just transfered the steam folder from Program Files (x86) to Program Files whithout any problem and the steam "saw" it on the spot. When I opened steam and checked the installation path it was C:\Program Files\Steam\... which means that the program recognised the manual cut and paste that I did. But it seems that there is something bothering it at least on the Mirage 2000 default campaign. Maybe there are other issues too I just haven't checked yet.. Probably this problem will be solved on the next patch???:(
hexmantheman Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Call me charlatan cuz I just tricked Steam. Alllllllright, I found a solution. So I have steam version and a single drive. You have to trick Steam to think it has two libraries. To do that you create a folder in your main drive. Let's say C:\SteamLib2. Then, you open the libraryfolders.vdf file on an editing program. What you want to do now is to add this line before the curly bracket closes. "1" "C:\\SteamLib2" Open steam and right click on DCS World. Go to the Local Files section and the Move Install Folder option should be visible now. Click on it and choose your new library. It will take a while to copy the files, but it worked for me. Hopefully it helps! :)
blcastle Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 You can't run it as admin when in Steam. Even running Steam to get DCS World to run as Admin doesn't work.

scampaboy Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Ok i got it working completely uninstalled steam all its games and reinstalled with a new installation folder It was the only way it was possible for me with a single HD hopefully a fix will come out in the future.
scampaboy Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Launch the Actual EXE as admin, not the shortcut w/ the --SteamApp ID That didnt work either. If you are desparate to play on 2.5.1 for example if the servers you play on have already been updated the the solution about uninstalling steam will work

hoptrol Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 If I move my DCS out of x86 to another folder, will I have to move it back to x86, before I update w/ the fix/patch when it comes available?
