    Im trying to use the update tool since I think that is the way the game should be updated and tbh I am tired of doing all manually so I try to use the update feature on rFactor2 and this is what happens:

    When I click on Query and I get the following message:
    "Checking for updates. Please wait for result.
    Update to build 218 found. Click "Download" to continue or "Update Automatically" to complete all step sequentially.
    Update will be downloaded from http://world.rfactor.net/Sync/Download/Unstable/218/Files/"


    none of them work, and when I click any of them, rfactor2 freezes and CTD.
    Please help

    Yep, same here. Tried running it as Administrator (I'm on Windows 7, 64bit), but that didn't help. The launcher goes to "not responding" within a couple of seconds after hitting the download button, without it actually downloading anything.

    the auto update button is on the pic below ( automatic update ) hover mouse over it and click the arrow,
    but it won`t do any good as it says download cancelled at 40%.

    Have used the auto-update for the last 2/3 times and it has been seamless, but like the others i have also had it freeze upon the point it would normally try to download the updated files. The checks are fine, but as soon as it wants to grab stuff it just hangs.

    I guess I'll wait for a bit, then. Don't feel like doing a clean install.

    Unless I'm mistaken, there's no 156 > 218 manual update available.

    That's right, there is not.

    If I were you guys, I would download the Lite installer and use that. You should be able to install it over the top without issue, and it's less than two times the size a manual update would have been.
