I installed a fresh copy of FL and Discovery. FL was very corrupt but now I can't upload update 6 it says...
" Quit Freelancer related programs like FLStat and FLCompanion and re-try."
I looked around all my FL files and Companion isn't there and the other I have no clue? I totally wiped out any file associated with FL and did a real fresh install from disk.
So what is going on???? Any help out there would be great. I'm not the most tek savy so lay-man terms pls. Thanks. I wanna play

Tried looking at the task manager yet so you are sure there arent programs like that still running on the background? That usually does the trick.
This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.

Best thing to do would be to restart your computer and then use the 4.86 patch right after your computer has rebooted. This way there will be minimal programs open and it will increase your chances of installing it.
Yep that worked thanks for all the advice and replies. I did a slow install with the patch, then did the restart then I installed Discovery. All is good that way, but I lost my main code for the multi player I wasn't able to access it so I put in a request to admin to help me recover my beloved ships and a whole lot of hard earned credits. I was on last week so it shouldn't be to hard to find them all. Paper is still a good idea.
