Problem Details: Earlier the game closed it self, started updating and the updater got stuck in a loop. It starts are ~39% and updates until ~80% until saying 'an error occurred!..' and retrying.
I did try adding an empty help.txt but it did nothing, though the file was deleted every time it retried.



Video or screenshot showing the problem:



osu! version: 20150617.3cuttingedge

Can you try to go back to Stable release stream? Go to your osu!.cfg and change _ReleaseStream to Stable.

Restart PC?

Same problem as me, i've made a topic that explain better what is going on

i've also found a "solution" which is to install the game with the offline installer in a "trash folder" and them move every .dlls files in the trash folder to your osu!folder without replacing ANY of your actual files in your osu!folder ( by doing that you'll just copy every missing files and not replace your .db files )
( save your folder before doing this if something goes wrong )
also @peppy : restarting the computer doesn't work, i've already tried this + chkdsk ( i first thought of an hdd error )
