What's going on?

The following DLCs are not authorized and will be
disabled:

Check that your antivirus is not deleting parts of the module.

A simple file verification should have been enough to detect that but it will keep happening so, as per the many threads on this, you need to add an exemption for either the affected files or for your DCS Steam directory.

[Wespenwaldi]

At the moment I have only downloaded 70 percent.

[Wespenwaldi]

However, according to the security program, I have a virus message: Ti!5C10142647f4 file in F14 common File

[X_Deadmeat_X]

That name looks like a temporary file name as part of the download so doesn't help much.

Depending on your AV vendor, I suspect it will show on the report as either a Potentially Unwanted Program or Application (PUP/PUA) or as an unscan-able "package" file (PACKUN) or their versions of those messages.

These are related to the DRM and file protections used by the module makers.

They do not mean that there is a virus, just that the AV isn't able to properly scan them to confirm that and is warning you about it. You'll need to make a decision on whether you trust the module vendor and Steam, in which case add the exception and reverify the download to replace it, or whether you'd rather not risk it, in which case you'll need to get rid of the module (and perhaps ask Steam for a refund).

[Wespenwaldi]

I didn't classify it as a threat at first. It was gone anyway because it was temporary. Wait for the new installation.

[X_Deadmeat_X]

Yes, but if you still get the unauthorised module message when you complete the download it will have quarantined/removed it rather than allowing it to go into the DCS directory.

[Wespenwaldi]

Then I add it as an exception.

Crashing.................Bang

[Wespenwaldi]

I'm in but I don't have a cockpit view.

[Wespenwaldi]

I am in Cockpit. finally.

[Wespenwaldi]

Real-time scan prevents start again. Which file do I have to exclude? Thanks for the help.

[Wespenwaldi]

Solved:
F14-Avionics.dll
F14-FlightModell.dll
F14-HeatblurCommon.dll

Now its works.
