Cannot update, repair, etc because Cannot create a file when that file already exist


e

Recommended Posts

So I've been trying to update for 4 hours and get this error with multiple files:

ERROR: Can't move D:\apps\DCS World\_downloads\bin/Qt5Widgets.dll to D:\apps\DCS World\bin/Qt5Widgets.dll: (183) Cannot create a file when that file already exists.

 

 

I have added the whole DCS folder to the Windows Defender exclusions list. Please help, I'm going insane.

Hi. You're right, DLL access issues are often due to antivirus/antimalware. But this time, it doesn't seem like it is.

 

Please attach your autoupdate_log.txt file (from D:\apps\DCS World\) as well as your dcs.log file (from C:\Users\your_name\Saved Games\DCS\Logs\).

 

Are you using symbolic links in your DCS installation?

Please try replacing your dcs_updater.exe with a new one from here

 

Troubleshooting:

Latest released DCS_updater is 2.10.5.56

 

If your updater got corrupt because of a broken antivirus or firewall software, you may download it here: DCS_updater_64bit.zip 3.9 MB

I got OB installed but can't install any planes. I installed the installer again but it didn't help. Can connect to server is all I get.

Hi, having a similar problem here. Rebooted, repaired and deleted the troubled file location but still keeps re-occurring.

 

Can't move D:\Gaming\DCS World\_downloads\Mods/aircraft/M-2000C/Doc/M-2000C RWR Threat Codes.pdf to D:\Gaming\DCS World\Mods/aircraft/M-2000C/Doc/M-2000C RWR Threat Codes.pdf: (5) Access is denied.

 

Apparently my log file exceeds the forum limit so I cannot attach it. I have NEVER in my history of DCS had a problem updating versions before.

 

Any help would be gratefully appreciated

Try manually deleting D:\Gaming\DCS World\Mods/aircraft/M-2000C/Doc/M-2000C RWR Threat Codes.pdf

 

then run a cleanup and repair, check your antivirus is not blocking DCS in some way.

 

let us know if it helps

Thanks BIGNEWY, it was either AVG anti-virus or a cleanup that cured the problem.
