      Hi!

      I am unable to download some of the maps from the "Maps"-tab. Some of the maps download without any problem, but many throws this same error.

      'java.util.concurrent.CompletionException: java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: path\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\maps\Stella Maris v3.v0001\stella maris v3.v0001.small.png'

              It may be that another process is blocking access to those files. Did you check your anti virus?

                Yup, that was my expectation that it's on my end. Antivirus shouldn't be the issue, as I can download some of the maps?

                  Just disable the antivirus and try it.
                  Btw, you only need Windows Defender nowadays anyway, extra antivirus is not needed.

                  The error you are getting is "typically due to a file permission or other access check. " so it could also be related to folder permissions.

                  And you can try the "Vault Fallback Location" setting in the client.

                    Right, that Vault fallback location fixed the issue! Thanks! 🙂
