Probably already been discussed but haven't got time to trawl through the posts.

I've seen loads of posts recently about authorisation failures and a message saying you had 2d 23h 59m left before the offending item/s are disabled.

Yesterday after an ED patch several files flagged up as malcious and Malwarebytes wanted to quarantine them, I chose not to do that as I have several other measures in place so continued as normal. For me everything worked fine, then due to being curious I started digging a bit with the files in question which were as follows.

Mods\Aircraft\SU-33\Bin\SU33CWS.DLL

Mods\Aircraft\SU-33\Bin\SU33.DLL

Mods\Aircraft\SU-27\Bin\SU27CWS.DLL

Mods\Aircraft\SU-27\Bin\SU27.DLL

Now these files were just for me, other people get different things but the point is I decided as a test a theory and manually remove them just to see what effects they were having on the game. After I removed those 4 files and restarted DCS I was expecting it to either start and not cause a problem unless I selected that aircraft, or anything that used it or for it to tell me there was missing files.

What I got instead was a blue box that said I was not authorised to use the SU-27 and the SU-33 and I had 2d 23h 59m left until they were disabled.

Basically I'm saying if you have this issue, despite ED saying they fixed it in the patch just check to see if anything has been quarantined or blocked, as soon as I put those files back everything worked as normal and the blue box was gone.
