Title: COUALTI engine cannot start P3dV4 **SOLVED**
Post by: J3Solo on November 10, 2018, 02:13:41 pm

It has worked flawlessly and now a popup is reporting that possible anti-virus/firewall stopping it. Anti-virus is turned off. I cannot find coualti.exe to make sure it is cleared through firewall. It is not in the folder with other DreamTeam folders.

Assuming you looked in the right folder:

Addon Manager\Couatl\Couatl.exe

If it's not there, then the only possible explanation is the antivirus has removed it.

As explained so many times on the forum, the correct course of action is NOT "disabling the antivirus", since some antivirus are still active in the background even they look "disabled" but, instead, CONFIGURE the antivirus to exclude the WHOLE Addon Manager folder from scanning, and run the FSDT Live Update again.

Thanks, I finally got it cleared through all the "obstacles" and it loads as always.
