IMPORTANT: Updating from 40.2 to 41.0 Beta 1

Thanks @Matt Mattox (Faithlife) - that got me up and running again.

Thanks, Matt - I can confirm, with this workaround I got 41 Beta 1 installed from 40.2 without running into the issues other users had.

Worked for me too, thank you @Matt Mattox (Faithlife) !!!

I did run into the installation issue (and Norton went haywire). I followed the instructions @Matt Mattox (Faithlife) posted but now Verbum is not opening for me. I attached my logs for help, please.

Matt's instructions worked for me on Verbum …

@Yasmin Stephen and once you got to this file path Data\<random>\Errors\ , you deleted the Errors folder right? After that, you should be able to open Logos and it should proceed as normal.

Let me know if you are still running into issues. Just note that I probably won't be able to respond until tomorrow. If you need immediate help on this matter. I'd call our support team here.

Yes, I deleted the Errors folder. However, remembering that Norton was constantly flashing me messages during the update, I went in there and found this:

Could this be preventing Verbum from opening?

No, problem; this is not my working copy.

Just chiming in to say that my antivirus program went haywire during the update as well, though I remained on the beta channel and never installed the service releases for v40. I told the antivirus program to chill out, and it let me install the update.

I can confirm that I used the workaround, and was able to install Logos without error. So far there doesn't seem to be anything untoward with doing this. I should say that I didn't delete the folder, I renamed it, for added safety.

I didn't have any problem, but i don't know whether it updated from 40.2

Logos Bible Study 41.0 Beta 1
41.0.342

Could this be preventing Verbum from opening?

Yes. If your antivirus has quarantined/removed Logos files, Logos (or Verbum) won't run.

You need to restore all files that your A/V has removed.

It looks like I can no longer restore the file:

What can I do now?

Try repairing the installation from "Apps" in Settings?

Then uninstall Norton and switch to Windows Defender. 😀

Repairing worked, thanks much!

(As for replacing Norton with Defender, it's something I've been considering for over 3 years now and I still continue with Norton every time. My Norton subscription is up for renewal in less than a month and maybe this time I'll finally save myself US$90 🤔)

You would have saved a lot more over the years😀 I gave up on Norton many years ago, tried a few others, but have used Defender for at least 4 years.
