Error 59 Cannot Update
I know a lot of other people have been getting this error but I cannot solve mine. I torrented the 1.0 installer yesterday and it is still installing the open beta. I have tried to uninstall/reinstall multiple times, still to no avail.

Re: Error 59 Cannot Update
Uninstall the open beta (this can be done from program and features, uninstall all "Project Reality" entries), make sure the file you downloaded was "prbf2_1.0.29.0_full.iso", and that you're starting the game with the shortcut it provides.

Re: Error 59 Cannot Update
Sorry to open an old thread but I am having a similar issue but I am using Desura and it says Error 59: update failed the version for this update does not match the installed version. Installed: 1.0.29.0, Required: 1.2.0.0 could use some help I have already uninstalled and reinstalled both desura and Pr.

Re: Error 59 Cannot Update
Try this:
here is my list of default installation directories, just for reference:
This depends on where you installed BF2,[R-DEV]AncientMan wrote:Try deleting:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\update.lock
Then repair the installation in Desura.
Then you should be able to launch and then update from a clean install.
