Jamovich Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 hi, When updating DCS world I get the following error: ERROR: Can't move f:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha\_downloads\Mods/aircraft/P-51D/bin/p51_protect.exe to f:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha\Mods/aircraft/P-51D/bin/p51_protect.exe: (183) Cannot create a file when that file already exists. This is causing update problems How do I fix it? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazduc Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Mr. Bignewy, Please explain activation. If I make a major change in my system and de-activate all my modules before the change, and then activate after the change.....do I lose activation's on all the modules? I thought by deactivating first, you would not lose the activations. Thanks, Laz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automan Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 No, you will lose 1 deactivation for every module.

lazduc Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 So, I have a new system and want to change around a number of items...Video cards, cpu, memory, ssd to M2 and then to 3D XPoint, use 3 monitors then just use a 50"4k, then use my Oculus Rift....to test different configurations on DCS to get the best performance. So each time I will lose activation's ? Each module....I will run out.....I know ED updates one activation a month.......for each module? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
