Cannot update OR

Clicking on the "Update to xnnnn" on the OR opening screen produces the attached error.

An explanation and solution would be greatly appreciated.

Which version of ORTS are you running?

To install and update software in the program files directory you may need to be logged on with adminstrator rights. Try starting Open Rails by right click and choose run as administrator.

Update has failed. Has happened before.
Easiest solution is to download latest build from here http://james-ross.co.uk/projects/or/builds and reinstall.

It happened to me. After a reboot it worked fine.

Hello Markus

Version 0.0.5409.37783 (according to properties tab), downloaded just days ago. The update being offered on the opening screen is X2918. I am using Windows 7.

Thanks Jeffrey

Logging on as administrator did the trick and I am now up-to-date.

(After many frustrating attempts to build new consists I discovered it is also necessary to open MSTS Editor as administrator!)

Thanks also to Markus, Christopher and Charles for taking the trouble to reply.

Cheers

Geoff
