Unsubscribing from mod does not work
Need More Info, WishlistPublic

Description

I had subscribed to a mod called 'Cup Terrains`. I changed my mind and unsubscribed but the steam client is still trying to download the mod. (5.6 GB).

I have since unsubscribed from all Arma 3 workshop content using the Arma 3 Launcher but still the steam client insists I should download the content.

I cannot pause the download if the game is running. I click the pause button and it stops for a second or two then starts again. I have set the steam client to not allow downloads when the game is running but it does not work.

I have tried exiting steam and deleting the content of 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\workshop\downloads\107410' but it just keeps coming back.

I even deleted the entire downloads folder but it came back too.

How do I get rid of the content I no longer want?

Hi,
could you please upload logs please?

  1. Start Arma 3 Launcher
  2. Open Options menu in the top right corner
  3. Click on Export Launcher logs to desktop
  4. Attach report in Feedback Tracker. If is report too big, so use some sharing service please and post link in your report.

Thank you very much.

We'll, the 5.6 GB workshop update finally completed so I have all this content I don't want and am not subscribed to.

Now, when I launch Arma 3 the Launcher perpetually says 'Checking for updates...' on the bottom.

In the Steam Client Downloads section Arma 3 Workshop content starts and completes in an endless loop.

Logs:

Do you need more logs? Every time I start the launcher it writes a .txt file to my desktop; I have lots...

This evening, for no reason that I can discern, a Workshop download started again. 5.6 GB. I cannot stop or pause the download if the launcher is open and/or the arma3.exe is running. I have set Steam client to globally disallow downloading while playing and specifically when Arma 3 is running; no effect.

I would really like to know how to get rid of this content please. 12 GB now as the content exist in two places...

On game launcher, on the modlist, click on CUP_terrains right mouse button, click unsubscribe and delete (or some smillar) and write about resoult.

That's the thing though. It doesn't list in the mods. I've already unsubscribed from the content via the steam workshop and A3 Launcher.
