Today I downloaded and updated MM with MediaMonkey_4.1.26.1896. When run as admininstrator, during the instal I get 2 error messages, one for MediaMonkey.exe and one for MediaMonkey64Helper.exe saying the files cannot be written because they exist already. Once it completes the installation, MM will not run anymore. My monkey is dead.
If I try to delete them, I do not have permission, in CMD, Power Shell or Bash.
A little help, please.

Re: Update killed my monkey
Sounds like MediaMonkey was still running. Try a PC restart and then install the update.

Re: Update killed my monkey
I'm having the same problem, halfway through installation I get "MoveFile failed; code 183".
I've aborted the installation, which then leaves me unable to open MM. I did restart my PC, downloaded the file again and ran as admin but it's the same problem each time.

Is MediaMonkey set to start automatically after PC restart? Otherwise security software may have the file locked.

Re: Update killed my monkey
I don't have any software that would lock the file. I tried again but still no Monkey.....

https://lockhunter.com/ can help identify what's locking the files.
