New Computer win 11 Auth Problem - win 10 install files on seperate ssd

[tothesky]

DCS Install from win 10 was untouched and on a separate ssd.

 

Ran DCS and checked instant action mission and fps for 20 min.  Ran no problem. closed.

Ran the updater and loaded in the the current update.

FAIL TO AUTHORIZE. 2 days until etc. Check cylance and find all modules dll blocked again.   So I have tried a few times relaxing security of the PC and no help was recorded. Ofcourse this happend early this year and simply selecting to allow the f15 dll solved the problem. I just ran the repair script and so far with cylance uninstalled the purchased modules remain blocked.  Even my Black Shark 2 will not run ! Very disappointed...

Please note that DCS modules were all active and seemingly available with all security turned on...until DCS World was updated.

please upload dcs.log. just so i understand. you have windows 11 on a new drive? you have the windows 10 drive as a secondary? which drive has the \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta folders? what drive has your saved games folder?

where does the DCS shortcut point? in my case "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS_updater.exe"

Hardware Profile Changed, and Authorization Failed when Connecting to Update Server,

Check Date/Time/Region code.

Rename /Saved Games/DCS.xxxxx/ Folder, and allow DCS to re-build auth.bin

Thanks for the help

Check Date/Time/Region code.     CHECK -  NO PROBLEM FOUND

Path is same on ED Drive. which is  D:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin   

I am sorry but I do not understand what you are asking me to do here.    

Rename   "   /Saved Games/DCS.xxxxx/ Folder   "     - WHERE IS THIS?  I am not using Steam installs.

Rename /Saved Games/DCS.xxxxx/ Folder, and allow DCS to re-build auth.bin 

Rename to what and what is the rebuild process?  I do not recall using that process in the past so clueless here.

 

I didnt get very very far in the spring with the new install. I got too busy. If its better I can run a full reinstall. Most important right now is Flaming cliffs and Black Shark 2.

Thank you.

I installed a new MB Memory and CPU.   New Samsung M2 SSD for Windows 11.  Number 1 M2 drive.  The Windows 10 was an Intel SSD drive is no longer serving.

The DCS Install was on a Samsumg M2 ssd and it was simple screwed in to Number 2 M2 Drive. Its drive letter changed and is now D instead of F.

The Game SSD stayed the same.  There was no shortcut being used but have since sent one to the desktop.  Yes thats where the updater is located. I went there to run it since it hasnt run for a few months.  lol.

Im not going to upload a log and work hard on this if its rooted in a Hardware change. I would add to the Faq the Ramifications of installing a brand new MB CPU and Drives.    Maybe if its possible ED can allow customers that have been using this software since LOCK ON some sort of easy process?

 

TY

there are two prime folders used by EA. first is the program folders. in your case D. it also puts files in a special windows location called Saved Games. all your special unique files like configs. put this in your File Explorer windows and hit enter. 

%userprofile%\

look for Saved Games 

within that folder you should the DCS folder. it might be DCS.openbeta rename this folder to DCS.openbeta.bak. then run DCS. the offending file will get recompiled. there is other stuff to do. lets start here and come back to report status. good luck!

My folder is      DCS     not running openbeta.

Renamed got the same problem.

sidenote  I deleted cylance to make sure it wasnt interfering. The new install of cylance so far is not blocking any .dll but they were add to the global safe list....

Anyway since there isnt a list to deal with this I am choosing to abort. I will delete almost 200gb and start over. TY
