Download file checksum does not match. Please help

[AtomicRaisin 1]

I cannot install the game! I just bought Escape from Tarkov Standard Edition and now when I'm trying to install the game to my computer it doesn't work. It says that the downloaded file checksum doesn't match. I've tried to install the game twice now and have got the same result both times. Im not sure what I'm suppose to do. I have got over 70 GB space on my SSD left so that should not be the problem. Please help.

maybe reinstall the launcher?

You need to turn off you anti virus and your windows firewall, restart your pc and reinstall. That’s what’s worked for me I had the same issue.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the launcher multiple times no luck. Still get the same error "downloaded file checksum does not match" Can they pay attention and fix this. I would really like to play the game I bought.  Frustration does just doesn't sum it up.

I bought it a couple days ago, I've tried so many different things, and I've tried to install it about 15 times now. Nothing. If you find a fix for it, please let me know!

I found a fix for this issue:

1. Uninstall the game and the battle launcher

2. clear temp files: run %temp% and delete all the files there

3. Search Tarkov in the registry editor (command regedit) and delete all the files and folders it finds

4. restart windows

5. re install the launcher

6. run the launcher as administrator

7. Install the game

 

It worked for me after hours of having the error. Hope it works for you too

Encontré una solución para este problema:

1. Desinstala el juego y el iniciador de batalla

2. borre los archivos temporales: ejecute% temp% y elimine todos los archivos allí

3. Busque Tarkov en el editor de registro (comando regedit) y elimine todos los archivos y carpetas que encuentre

4. reiniciar windows

5. reinstale el lanzador

6. ejecuta el lanzador como administrador

7. Instala el juego

 

Funcionó para mí después de horas de tener el error. Espero que funcione para usted también 

In the 3rd step, idk I search Tarkov, but idk what i have to delete

[LordDefiance 1]

I found a solution, which works for me: https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/epv37g/downloaded_file_checksum_does_not_match_fix/

Another solution: The support is very friendly and one can ask them for a link to download the distribution directly.
