JohnJJr Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 After flying TE Wash in xp 11 I went to orbx central and decided to check if there were any updates to TE Wash or orbx library. When I opened it, it installed a new version of orbx central and again asked all the same questions I answered from the last install ( where to put back up and where orbx library is to be installed ). When I looked on my products it said version 1.1.0 was ready to install of TE Wash, which I thought was just an update. So I pressed install and it said orbx library has to be updated so I did that . It then said version 1.1.0 was installed. I read on your forum that you should verify files after downloading so I pressed to verify files. Then Orbx Central started to download another copy of TE Wash. So now I have 2 copies of TE Wash ( or 2 backups ) on my c drive. I can't seem to stop the download and I'm afraid of messing something up so I'm just going to let it finish. What should I do now ? Do I just uninstall TE Wash and its backup and download it again? I didnt want anything other than to update TE Wash and the orbx library- now I have what seems to be 2 copies on my hard drive. Can you please advise.

Nick Cooper Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 Hello, here are some extracts from the log. really we need an Orbx Central developer.

[INFO] Converting Custom Scenery\Orbx_C_US_Washington_TE_Orthos\textures\b060x58f0x17.JPG If you asked for a back up, you should expect to have one working copy and one backup. Is it now successfully installed?
JohnJJr Posted November 2, 2019 Author Posted November 2, 2019 Yes it is done installing another copy of TE Wash. Looking at my "C" drive , out of 465gb total size I only have 57.7 gb remaining free. Orbx central assigned both the backup and storage of the TE Wash files there by default. Can I delete TE Wash and the backup on the "C" drive and download TE Wash again to a bigger drive that I have available? Will I get charged again for TE Wash ? I also have the enhancement pack for TE Wash on the same drive. What I would like to do is clear out everything ( TE Wash , backup and enhancement pack ) from the "C" drive and start over and download TE Wash ,backup and enhancement pack to a larger drive.
JohnJJr Posted November 2, 2019 Author Posted November 2, 2019 Just to clarify, I did not ask for a backup, I already had TE Wash and it's backup installed. All I wanted to do was to update TE Wash ( which it did ) and then to verify the files. When I pressed " verify files" it started downloading another copy of TE Wash. I think that may be the problem.
Nick Cooper Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 Hello, there will be no extra charge. can you show me an image of this page of your copy of Orbx Central please?
Nick Cooper Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 Thanks. Just to clarify: If you don't want backups, you need to untick the box next to "Automatically backup product installation files". You might also consider moving the "Temporary Location" off your C drive. You can delete the backup files from the location in your screen shot but it would make sense to use them to install your products to another drive first.
JohnJJr Posted November 2, 2019 Author Posted November 2, 2019 Ok so if I want to fix this I guess I go to the downloader page 1st and reassign the locations for the TE Wash and enhancement and backup files. Then delete both the TE Wash and enhancement pack. After that download the TE Wash and enhancement pack ( which will go to the new drive with their backups). Then delete the backup files from the "C" drive. Right?
Nick Cooper Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 Hello, I would suggest that you untick the request for a backup to be created and then use the backup that you already have to install the product to the new location. Then you can delete the backup files.
JohnJJr Posted November 2, 2019 Author Posted November 2, 2019 For future scenery purchases to create a backup location on the new drive what folder selection and order would I use?
Nick Cooper Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Hello, you can choose any location that you see fit to by clicking on the Edit button.
