Modified on Tue, 17 Dec at 11:50 AM

This error can occur when a file that is transferred is shorter or longer than it's supposed to be. This can be caused by a permissions issue or by your antivirus blocking some of Glyph's communication with our servers.

    5. Click the check box for 'Run this program as an administrator.'

    7. Attempt to patch.
    8. If you still get the error while patching, please close and reopen the patcher as Admin. This may take a few tries.
