Hello,

after few inactive months I have tried to update DCS, however I keep getting the screen that I have enclosed as the screenshot. The update, due to this, completely fails. Does anyone know how to overcome this without needing clean DCS re installation? I do not use any modifications.

Thanks in advance,

O.

Hi, 

please check your antivirus isnt creating any issues for DCS, then try a pc reboot and try again. 

If that fails go to your DCS root and delete the _downloads folder and redownload the update. 

Let us know if it helps 

thank you

Hi BIGNEWY,

thank you very much for your efort. I already had DCS exemted in antivirus, so I tried to delete the _downloads folder and redo the update with unfortunately same result. I also included log file this time, although I am not sure if it can help.

Being a bit rusty with DCS, can you please remind me which files to save to preserve all my controls seettings in case I have to go for clean install? Thanks again.

hello. to save the controls go into Saved Games, find the DCS subfolder. within that folder, there is a folder called CONFIG. make a copy of it somewhere you can find later. also you can just rename the entire SAVED GAMES\DCS folder to .BAK. there may be something in that folder causing your issues.

Have you tried a full slow repair? It's the same as a re-installation and won't touch the settings in Saved Games.

Hello,

thank you very much guys for your kind replies, I have tried slow repair before and again, with the same result - AGM-119B_fr.txt is a magical file on my PC, that can't be moved 😄.

My patience is almost depleted and I will probably resort to complete reinstall, when I have time.
