Update Failing since today

[Zoria6]

Hello,

since today I can neither update my FAF lobby (Update fails, server unable to send file) nor download new maps.

This causes me to be unable to join or create games.

I have tried to reinstall the lobby - doesnt help

I have not installed new programms on my PC.

I have tried to switch off firewall and Antivir.

Another PC in the same network works fine.

Heres the error Report:

Can you help?

I searched through the forums and found some other topics referring to this issue, but none of the solutions worked for me - or I did it wrong.

Try clearing your game cache files (in the option menu).

[Zoria6]

Thanks for your answer. After clearing the cache - actually after clearing everything there is to clear - the download DOES download - but not complete. It stops at a random percentage (all 3 files that are trying to be downloaded.

It tells me the server didnt properly send the file.

Do you have server issues atm?

Mind you - im just fishing in the dark...dont know why this would happen...and only on this one PC...

[Ze_PilOt]

The server has no problem. It's probably on your side (check firewall, ....)

Hi! Thanks for the help...

I managed to figure out what the 2nd issue was after clearing the cache - maybe its helpful for other people.

The (§&$%()=& Browser protection of Antivir is obv. Blocking Data download from FAF forever... *;(

When I turn it off it works...I have to play a bit with the settings and see what it is in detail.

Big thanks again zo Ze_PilOt for helping

And here also for future reference: I added RAR, ZIP etc...

To the exception list of Antivir browser security...so it works now.

Greets again...
