Summary0005424: Autoupdater finds no txt file (Impulse/Gamestop version?)
DescriptionI bought the game few days ago on Impulse (or GameStop, whatever you prefer :\ ). When I downloaded it, the version was 0.541. I noticed there are 11 BETA updates available so I tried to install them...They download fine, but when Autoupdater starts, after it says it is "now ready to install updates", I recieve the following error message:

"There has been an error.
Error reading file C:/Program Files/Indie Games/ A Valley Without Wind/RuntimeData/updates/updatelist.txt
The application will exit now."

I am a bit worried because I do not know, what will happen when there are non-beta updates...

When there are non-beta updates, Impulse will provide them to you directly, so at core there's no reason to worry too much.

However, to fix the problem it's probably a permissions issue. You'll want to go to C:/Program Files/Indie Games/ A Valley Without Wind and right-click that folder, then make sure that yourself, administrators, and users in general have Full access rights to that folder and subfolders. Then it should work fine.

Hope that helps!

Thank you for a quick response.
I di as you said and what do you know - it worked! Thanks! And here I though I've already gave every possible access right to any possible user on my PC. That Vista...

Oh well. As for non-beta updates - yeah, I expected as much, but it happened to me that Impulse started to act a bit funny when it came to certain game updates, but that was probably because I manually updated them before the Impulse.
Thank you again.
