rayrayblues Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 (edited) I just updated my open beta to version 2.5.6.47404 and my desktop shortcut no longer works, so I went to the root folder and there is no Run.exe launcher. I can't start the game, please help. :helpsmilie: BTW, I can start it with power shell. (Run.exe) I tried cleanup and repair, but no luck. Neither command is recognized. (.\DCS_Updater.exe repair) Anyone?? :dunno: I finally got cleanup and repair to run, but I still don't have a Run.exe file. I'm going crazy trying to figure it out.

shagrat Posted May 7, 2020 Posted May 7, 2020 DCS link should start bin/DCS_Updater.exe not "Run.exe". The actual game is /bin/DCS.exe... which is called when updater checked for updates etc. Shagrat - Flying Sims since 1984 - Win 10 | i5 10600K@4.1GHz | 64GB | GeForce RTX 3090 - Asus VG34VQL1B | TrackIR5 | Simshaker & Jetseat | VPForce Rhino Base & VIRPIL T50 CM2 Stick on 200mm curved extension | VIRPIL T50 CM2 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Plus/Apache64 Grip | MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals | WW Top Gun MIP | a hand made AHCP | 2x Elgato StreamDeck (Buttons galore)
rayrayblues Posted May 7, 2020 Author Posted May 7, 2020 Thank you shagrat. That works great. I have always used the Run.exe file though (see below) and wondered why it disappeared.

Maybe your Antivirus put it on quarintine? .. check the AV logs.
