Thanks for the report. A background Gen7 Engine process is working, which doesn't let the main one changes a file content. To fix that, please restart your computer then rerun the setup,and let me know how it goes.

Ah, OK. I'll restart it and try again.

jeffyTheHomebrewer
(oh, and I'll just delete the files it downloaded, since when I run the installer with those in there it just starts the background service.)

OK, I restated my PC and ran the installer again;
SAME FRIGG'N ERROR.

Oh, that's very strange. Can you try that last thing, delete manually dat.pkg and Gen7 Launcher.exe located in C:\Gen7-Engine folder, then rerun the setup? This time Windows itself will complain if there's a problem.

OK, I deleted everything but the dkpexists.txt file, then ran setup again, it updated the subcomponents, and now windows sait that the setup program might have not installed correctly and wants to know if I think it's fine or that the "Recommended settings" should be applied.

Ooh, that's not good. I launched it after installing it again, and then it said "First launch. Live installed Prerequisites."
so I hit OK, and now it said "Your Gen7 Install is Corrupted." What do?

jeffyTheHomebrewer
Really,m I'm sorry if I'm being annoying. I'll just try everything I can.

Don't worry, you're not annoying at all, actually you're helping me know the issues so I can fix them for everyone which is very appreciable. Can you send me a screen of the C:\Gen7-Engine folder please?

And I think the reason why it said the instal was corrupt was because it put BOTH the revison3intalled.txt
and revision4installed.txt in there, confusing the launcher.

Okay... actually you only have half of the files/folders installed. It is quite strange as you have an issue I thought I fixed in the last update;
I will make a diagnostic system in the setup and check directly in the code what can create these problems. Thanks for the report.

Thanks, and I ran the launcher again: Same "Couldn't access dat.pkg cuz' somethin' else is using it rn lolo" error as before. I do appreciate your hard work, and I will gladly so some testing for you, to help the program work better.

Hello! Do you have a Discord so you could test the new release of Gen7.2? It's still beta so I can't make it public yet

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
