DRB Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 While attempting to download Vector 1.6 through FTX Central 3, an error stopped the update from 1.52 to 1.6. Now here is the error message when I try to open FTX Central 3: "Couldn't add existing download: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Orbx.FTXCentral.ViewModel.MainWindowViewModel.ResumExistingDownloads(InstallManager manager, SimulatorService simService) OK Vector is remains as v1.52. There is no apparent way to try to re-download v1.6 Thx for your help. --drb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Hi You can delete the Users\name\AppData\Local\Orbx\Metadata contents, and the %temp%\Orbx\ng contents, and this should allow you to start clean again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRB Posted November 30, 2018 Author Share Posted November 30, 2018 Thanks for the suggestions. In the meanwhile I updated my NVIDIA driver to 417.01 WHQL and that seems to fix the problem. I hope it was as easy as that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRB Posted November 30, 2018 Author Share Posted November 30, 2018 What is the address string for: %temp%\orbx\ng contents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 C:\Users\name\AppData\local\Temp\orbx\ng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRB Posted November 30, 2018 Author Share Posted November 30, 2018 I only have ...local\temp\orbx. There is no file entitled "ng" within orbx folder. Within the orbx folder there is ccache.json, pcache_all.json, and 197 pimage_... files Sorry. What do you recommend? Thx. --drb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Hi Just make sure those folders are non existent or empty then carry on with the below methods. Please use a download manager for the below manual methods. Below is a good free DL manager, just beware in case it wants to install additional antivirus/malware like a lot of freeware does these days. https://www.freedownloadmanager.org/ Browser extension DL managers do not work for this. Alternatively, you can also use a download manager (to help avoid corrupt downloads) such as IDM and do a manual download from your Orbx Direct account web page (this is where a download manager works great) and click on the account button top of page, then find and click on the product info, and in the bottom line small print there is a manual download option, down load it and save it in a named folder, then open FTXC3 and select it, and click on the orange "installation options" and select "Install from my manually downloaded .zip". as per the below links. http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/127395-manual-download-of-products/ http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/125435-how-to-install-from-an-orbx-direct-downloaded-zip-file/ Cheers Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRB Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 I downloaded Vector v1.60 and saved it to my D Drive. I opened FTX Central 3 and could not find a way on this control panel to select the downloaded Vector zip file in my named folder in my D Drive to install it. Sorry, but how do I install v1.60? Thx. --drb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Please read the instructions in the links I provided above, it's all there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRB Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 Not sure if this did it, but I clicked verify files in FTX Central...Vector and the download started up and installed. So, I guess I am set. Thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
