DCS_Updater Error: Win7 incompatible !


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hi all,

 

Since update to the new 1.2.7.23097 Version i have big problems with the dcs_updater. (See attachment). I have this error message under Win7 (64Bit) Version. Also, if i want to run dcs_updater from the cmd prompt, same issue. It seems. that this file will be generated during Installation or update process ... Anybody has an idea how to fix it ??

After replace the corrupt dcs_updater in the bin folder with a new one from a friend (update from 1.2.6 to 1.2.7), everything works correct. :thumbup: After unzip rename dcs_updater._x_ to dcs_updater.exe and replace it.

Along those lines also install the Sim to another area on the drive. (ie. C:\Sims. create it when prompted.

be sure to turn off any anti virus also. although I do believe you have tried that per support. Someone else had this issue and it was because VLC media player had control of Bin files on there system. Being not very PC savvy he chose to delete VLC. re install DCS and then put VLC back on his system.

I was asking, and also curious to know, if the 1.2.7 updater is updating 32 bit systems? (considering the move to 64bit/ dropping 32bit support)

I have the same problem but your fix makes no change for me unfortunately :(

 

I tried excluding the folder and files in Bitdefender in case that's related to the issue but no success.

Cant even install a module because it tries to access the updater on installation and that brings up that same error message.

Do you have any more information on your problem what else you might have done that could have caused a success?

 

Thank you in advance,
