Game version not updated after finished updating in Origin

★★ Apprentice

Hi, I encountered a problem where even though I have updated my game to the latest version in Origin ( - or that's what Origin says), the game version still shows 1.66.139.1220 in the game folder. I can see the new scenario in the latest update delivery though. I have disabled all my mods, and have updated my computer system to the latest version. I'm wondering what's happening here. Thanks in advance!

Really weird. Maybe uninstall the game completely and reinstall?

It really doesn't matter but you could trash the GameVersion file and see what the new one that is created says.

Thank you very much for the reply! I have tried that method several times and the new file still shows the exact previous game version. I'm not sure why it is, and a little bit worried that a few mods might not support previous game versions with their updated ones.

What game version does it show in the main menu?

It shows the old version on the first page.

Where did you download the game from?

 

Have you run the Origin reset tool?

I downloaded the game from Origin. 

 

And I just tried the Origin reset tool, deleted and re-installed the latest version of Origin. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be working, as it still shows the old game version on the main page.
