My M 2000 module says "authorization failed"

[Edgehog]

I updated DCS World a few days ago, to the latest  version. Now my Mirage M 2000 is not working. Even though it appears in my module manager, there is no icon for it or screensaver in the splash page. It is not available for flying. I purchased it four years ago in May 2020. 

It is the only module not working. Why is this? How can I fix it?

Check that your anti-virus has not quarantined some M2000 files. Some people are have issues with this.

I did a repair all files and it fixed the issue for me.  I can fly the plane again.   

Not sure if that will work for all but it did for me.

How do you do a repair all files? Is that only for the STEAM version or does that also work in stand-alone? I am having the exact same issue and running the stand-alone version. Thanks in advance.

OK. I don't understand what to do. All of a sudden DCS tells me M-200OC is diabled, but my account on ED tells me M-2000 as bought.

What do I do?

[gabuzomeu]

To repair all files:

launch 

"YourDrive:\DCS World\bin\DCS_updater.exe" repair

from theDCSWorld\ bin directory

Did that. Did not work. Next step?

[DmitriKozlowsky]

Problem resolved itself with today's update. But I did get a bunch of 'BLOCKED ACTION" warnings from Norton , all to DCS.exe and DCS_Lock files that required 'ALLOW'. So what did I allow? This was not present before.

Can you please explain how to do this repair? I am an old fart and not very computer literate!

Thanks
