I am getting the Manifest Download Error and the program and system worked fine ... for months.  

 

  Quote

Manifest download error for http://patch.savecoh.com/manifest.xml
An exception occurred during a WebClient request.

 

Turning off AnitVius or running as Admin don't seem to help.   Not sure where to see if Windows Defender is the culprit here (it says it is handled by my AV) 

 

I am using ESET and added Tequila as an exclusion, and tried running it w antivirus off. 

 

I may try reseting to previous system save point.

That sounds like a network issue.  Can you open that address in a web browser?

It's not a network issue, because I can paste the xml in my browser and it will download.   

 

Tequila or CreamSoda both have the same issue.  They can't process the request for the manifest.  

 

But network access is not a problem.  I tried turning off my firewall and anti-virus and got the same result. 

 

Also other PC's seem to work fine, on the network.  

 

I did a Windows update recently, I was wondering if it somehow hosed things up.  But aside from Tequila, everything is working fine.

 

I did not fully update windows as it had an issue, but then I was unable to do a system restore from the Save Point I made prior to the update.

I am also getting an error today. I was playing yesterday no problem and started today.

Updating windows. 2020-02 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.7.2 and 4.8 for Windows 10 Version 1809 for x64 (KB4538156) is available so maybe. Need to restart

Applying my last above comment's framework update fixed it. GL with yours

I solved the problem by using the Sweet Tea Launcher.  I could never solve the issue with Tequila and Cream Soda.
