Dutch60 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) Need HELP to install DCS modules on new computer! Just moved DCS to a new computer but the "Install" button in the module manager stops DCS and does not start it again with the installation of the selected module? Did you deactivate the modules on the old computer: Yes. Did you uninstall the modules from the old computer: Yes. Did you install DCS on the new computer: Yes. Are you logged in to DCS on the new computer: Yes. Do you see the modules on the new computer: Yes. Are there "Install" buttons on the new computer: Yes (for the modules I own). Any more ideas?

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted November 22, 2017 ED Team Share Posted November 22, 2017 Hi Maybe antivirus security creating an issue? attach your dcs.log from your saved games folder and your autoupdate_log.txt from your dcs install location, it should show us some clues Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Ricke444 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Do you have any DLC campaigns? If yes, you have to install the aircraft first, otherwise it crashes. So again, first time, only install planes, helicopters and maps. And the second time you install the addons that depends on the above. Campaigns and GPS.

Dutch60 Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Just stopped the Windows Firewall and Windows Virus scanner. Restarted DCS and again could install a module. So the Windows Firewall and Windows Virus scanner are running again. :smartass: i9 13900KS (H150i), RTX 4090, 64 GB RAM @ 6000 MHz CL30, TM Warthog HOTAS + MFD's, MFG Crosswind, LG 48GQ900, Valve Index VR, TrackIR 5, Win11 Pro x64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch60 Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Just did some command promt stuff... The command promt is old stuff it's now called Windows Power Shell. :smartass: .\DCS_updater repair this went ok no repair needed. .\DCS_updater update this went ok no update needed. .\DCS_updater install F-86F here I got a firewall popup warning so i added the rull allow for dcs_update.exe access. and then the module installed when starting DCS it now asked for the activation key. entred the key and the module was installed. :thumbup: But from the Module Manager I still can't install modules? :mad: So now I need to install all my modules from a Power Shell command. Can you please give me a list of all posible module names I can use with the install command? :joystick: i9 13900KS (H150i), RTX 4090, 64 GB RAM @ 6000 MHz CL30, TM Warthog HOTAS + MFD's, MFG Crosswind, LG 48GQ900, Valve Index VR, TrackIR 5, Win11 Pro x64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
