He-Lord Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Hi! I moved my DCS Open Beta folder to other drive. It launches normally, but I cannot get automatic updates anymore. Any idea what I should do? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26-J39 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 You can always update by going to the DCS World OpenBeta\Bin directory. Open command prompt and run.. DCS_updater update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudel_chw Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Any idea what I should do? Probably the windows shortcut that you are using, points to dcs.exe ... edit it so that it points to dcs_updater.exe .. this way dcs will first check for updates and then start the sim.

Ramsay Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Any idea what I should do? If you are comfortable using regedit, you may want to edit • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta>Path to reflect Open Beta's new location. Note: the registry holds separate paths for Release and OpenBeta versions. As I run Steam, it's a while since I've used the ED updater/module manager with this legacy directory and YMMV. i9 9900K @4.7GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 10 Pro x64, 1920X1080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert31178 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Or if you have Windows 10 you can pull it up in the "all apps" menu, click Eagle Dynamics, one of the .exe's there is an updater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
