I am trying to update to the latest version of GDT, 1.3.14, and right as it reaches the end of installation the following error pops up.
C:\Program Files (x86)\game Dev Tycoon\GameDevTycoon.exe
An error occurred while trying to rename a file in the destination
directory: MoveFile failed; code 2. The system cannot find the file
specified
Click Retry to try again, Ignore to skip this file (not recommended),
or Abort to cancel installation.
I initially thought this might be due to having forgotten to uninstall the previous version prior to updating, but after uninstalling the problem persists. I am running the install executable as administrator, and have deleted the empty GDT folder from the directory. This problem does not occur when installing the previous version I was using, 1.3.9 .
It would seem that Avast was indeed the source of the trouble. I had read that it might cause false positives, but expected that if that were the case it would begin screaming at me like it normally does when it feels something is amiss. Thanks for the speedy response, and sorry for my slow one.
