Oh my oh my... Links to more links...

Players get confused and can't get the proper solution with all this links....

And, to get help from Activision is a no brainer. Take weeks, with junk answer from them.

i might have a possible solution for this after some troubleshooting myself. It's finally gotten past 1% download after everything else didnt work to do even that. Now its at 37%. If it does work and let me fully do the update I will add a further response with information on what to do.
Glad to know it wasnt just me with this issue.

Edit: Prior to what I just did, I had tried:
- running steam on admin mode
- verifying integrity of game files (wouldnt finish the download it promoted following that)
- restarted my pc multiple times
- deleted files in my download cache folder on steam in case that was the issue.

I am now at 100%, and the game is booting up.

What I did that FIXED it for me was:
- open "command prompt" but running as administrator
- type: netsh winsock reset
- press enter
- restart pc
then try your download/update again!

Good luck! if this doesnt work for anyone, let me know, and I will do more troubleshooting

Just edited this with the fix that worked for me, as well as the steps taken prior that was recommended on posts on reddit that I tried prior, regarding the steam "content files locked" issue.

Let me know if this doesnt help you and I'll see what other info or suggested fixes i can find online.
