skypickle Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 did today's update and got this notice in the log: 00758.500 ERROR: Can't move C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\_downloads\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll to C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll: (2) The system cannot find the file specified. 00758.982 STATUS: Can't move C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\_downloads\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll to C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll: (2) The system cannot find the file specified. 4930K @ 4.5, 32g ram, TitanPascal
Golan Trevize Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Had the same. During the download my anti virus flagged the dll as harmful application and deleted it. Restored the file from quarantine, but got the below error on the auto start after patching. Exited the game and did a full repair. Now the game wants to delete all those modules.
Mistral_ Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Same here... but SEVENTEEN modules not working right now including maps. I'm going to reinstall from scratch. Finger crossed.
skypickle Posted March 11, 2023 Author Posted March 11, 2023 Thats what i had to do. Reinstall dcs (remember when this was the solution to windows?) I didn’t add CA and got my modules back 4930K @ 4.5, 32g ram, TitanPascal
Flappie Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Are you using ESET antivirus? If so, read this: ---
cazub Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) ***UPDATE*** i had to do the restore and update , but got same failure, the file turns out to be in flagged with the antivirus. same boat, for the last 6 or so major updates i get into a cycle of having to manually delete files for the installer in order to get it to actually run. The windows 10 permissions are dogsh** in general and i suspect they are the reason this keeps happening. This only started after i had to move my install folder from the default to a drive with more storage.The last time i did this i was so pissed off i reinstalled from scratch. I was lucky to get a couple minor updates in without an issue and now here i am again looking at reinstalling the entire thing i guess? 00013.092 STATUS: Downloading update... 00013.093 INFO : Using HTTP download. 00014.327 STATUS: Removing obsolete files... 00014.550 INFO : Removed 0 files. 00015.066 INFO : Kept 89380 files. 00015.067 STATUS: Installing new files... 00015.068 INFO : INSTALL Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll 00015.068 ERROR: Can't move Z:\DCS World OpenBeta\_downloads\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll to Z:\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll: (2) The system cannot find the file specified. 00015.268 STATUS: Can't move Z:\DCS World OpenBeta\_downloads\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll to Z:\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll: (2) The system cannot find the file specified. 00030.747 === Log closed.

Golan Trevize Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 15 hours ago, Flappie said: Are you using ESET antivirus? If so, read this: I have white listed the file completely, did a repair and got it working after restoring the modules from the "downloads" folder once the repair finished. However with nothing having changed since yesterday, trying to log in now, the game wants to disable CA again, but this time only CA and not the rest of the modules. Yesterday's modules included the free maps as well, so I don't see how it would be caused just by that single CA related dll.
Flappie Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 Try white-listing the whole "/DCS World OpenBeta/" folder. ---

I did, then tried to repair and DCS still wants to disable CA. The dll is where it supposed to be, it hasn't been moved to quarantine. I also tried completely pausing the anti virus, same thing. The rapair is not happy with the dll, but I can start the game, if I manually copy the old dll back from the "_downloads" folder (where the repair puts the "incorrect" file after replacing it) and overwrite the new version dll.

crazyeddie Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Same issue with AVG - AVG moved the dll file to quarantine - simple solution go into AVG Quarantine and declare it as a False Positive, AVG will reinstall the file to the game. 1
skypickle Posted March 13, 2023 Author Posted March 13, 2023 I guess some evil person put a virus in the code. This is not a new module and the changelog says nothing about CA. So why is antivirus flagging it? I am not whitelisting it until ED says its safe 4930K @ 4.5, 32g ram, TitanPascal
Kirito Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Todays patch gave us a new 'CombinedArms.dll' which is no longer detected as a virus by ESET. Have a look at: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/d0dc5709db29a48a5342c8b2ef285663b1d897d09a528ba158ecf37b9eb4760b?nocache=1 1
