Issue: 

 

When I try to put more than 3 products to dowload queue I am getting the error above. This is a bit frustrating when there's a time - like today - when I got updates to 14 different products.

 

Cheers,

Hello,

 

This is the error Central gets when it tries to read/write the product data (manifest).

This is commonly caused by antivirus software scanning files that Orbx Central writes and locking the file. Do you have any antivirus software installed that may be doing this?

Hi,

I have Windows Defender. Is this possible culprit?

Hi @Sholay,

 

It may be the culprit. You can test if this is the case by disabling Windows Defender and checking if the problem persists.
