Unfortunately, it didn't work. I tried it several times, including restarting the PC.

Have any of you manually edited hosts in your  C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts  ?

It seems some people have edited this in the past and it is creating problems for some

Open C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts in notepad, 

check for api.digitalcombatsimulator.com line and delete, then save. ( if it is not there dont worry )

Then retry the update.

Yes, that helped, thank you very much! There was indeed an entry for DCS, and deleting that helped.

bravo BN. although it likely helped users get to resources, i knew editing HOST was going to sting later. i wished i had a dollar for every client i had to troubleshoot because of HOST. sometimes bad engineers like to make something work and then walk away. then no change logs. SMH.

great to hear it has helped, I hope you will enjoy the terrain and have a great weekend
