How To Fix The "could not move plugins error"

First thing's first, thanks a lot :D I've tried many other ways of working around vista (Can't exactly remember but there was another thread on problems in general with "moving plugins" on vista being #1) but strangely enough it worked for me this time!
So this is basically how I did it:
1: downloaded Scar and SRL (following this guide essentially but there are plenty of other just as helpful outlines: http://www.villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=17890)
2: followed kingarabarin's instructions to the point of restarting then checking Scar
3: when I clicked scar it said that it couldn't function because I had deleted the Scar folder from the C:\Program files so I decided to restore the deleted Scar folder from my recycling bin
4: so then here I was just thinking what to do next... after all this I just ran the program as admin one last time then did the checkout from tools>options>SRL and it worked!
I don't know if this is any help but still thanks a lot!
*Note* I had also used another guide to disable user control account (control panel> security> user accounts/family saftey> user accounts> turn user account control on or off> then check out the box that appears in the window and click okay) also I'm running a vista 32bit if that's any help, also sorry for any spelling or grammar errors xD

Thanks :) it worked ^^

thx, u fixed my problem

I've tried everything, but nothing's working :/. I think that a manual download for SRL would be fix our problems though, since we could just put it in the SRL folder, and then just copy the contents of the plugins folder to the SRL folder, and then there ya go, you have SRL. In short, we need a manual download for SRL asap.

I just downloaded and installed subversion first, then i downloaded and installed scar. And i ran scar as an admin, then i was able to checkout. Thanks!!!! :)

Uninstall, delete, USE CCLEANER to remove reg files "RESET",and then Rerinstall

svn-1.4.5-setup

you r like the worlds best...awesome man...thnx

omg thanks it works i cant thank you so much then this

Awesome, wonderfull thread to make. This is a very big issue that noobs dont know how to fix lol. :cartman:

Yeah it works, if you are Admin on your PC and press "Run as adminstator"

OK here's how I did it.

This should solve the Vista UAC problem and the "could not move plugins error"

The main problem, I believe, is that the address for the SRL files is hardcoded into SCAR the web address has changed.

So here we go. Don't panic shouldn't take more than 30 mins to do (Unless you have a really slow net conection.

Uninstall your current version of SCAR and any old versions, then manualy delete the SCAR folder from the Program Files folder.

Download SCAR again and install in C:/SCAR 3.15 DO NOT INSTALL INTO THE Program Files FOLDER

Now Click start and type cmd in the search bar. This should open a Dos window. Type the following commands (which are case sensitive).

cd /SC*/I*
svn checkout http://www.villavu.com/repositories/srl SRL

Next right click on the desk top icon for SCAR and click "properties", click the "compatibility" tab and check the "Run this program as an administrator" box. Click the "ok" button.

Double Click the SCAR icon to run the program and click the "allow" button when the UAC popup opens.

Click on "tools" on the SCAR menu bar and click "options", click the "SRL Download" tab, and click the "Move plugins" button. DO NOT click the "Checkout" button as this will wipe out the SRL files and you will have to download them again. Finally make sure that the "Check repos during runtime for updates" check box is clear, and click "Ok"

That's all folks you are ready to go. Hopefully the next version of SCAR that comes out will have the link fixed.

tried and worked a treat thank you

Wow amc, 1 post and you've solved a problem that's been nagging at me for a few days! Thanks a bunch, rep +

I have another solution that I worked out today, and can help you if amc's solution does not.

I'll break it into steps for yall.

1) Uninstall SCAR and any other SVN program you have. You may need to manually delete some files left behind, but they shouldn't be much of a problem. If you cannot delete these (eg: you get the error: "Cannot delete, the file is in use") then simply restart and you will be able to.

2) Download and Install Tortoise SVN from the link below. I can personally vouch for the safety of this program.

Code:

---

http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads

---

3) Download SCAR 3.15b from this link.

Code:

---

http://freddy1990.com/scar.php

---

4) Once you have them both installed (have SCAR in program files) , go to C:\Program Files.

5) Don't enter the SCAR folder, but instead, right click on it. Look on the popup box that will appear. Click on "SVN Checkout..."

6) When the Checkout windows appears, make sure you have your settings like so.

URL of Repository : http://www.villavu.com/repositories/srl/
Checkout Directory : C:\Program Files\SCAR 3.15\srl
Checkout Depth: Fully recursive

7) Once this is done, go to C:\Program Files\SCAR 3.15\srl, and open the folder "place inside plugins folder"

8) If this wasn't obvious enough, you need to COPY everything in this folder, and PASTE it into the C:\Program Files\SCAR 3.15\Plugins folder.

9) It should work. Have fun botting ;)



EDIT: If you do get an error while running a script in SCAR, be sure to post that. For the noobs, it will be in the bottom dialogue box when you have SCAR open. These errors can help pinpoint problems in the setup.

Try this, It worked for me :)

amc u legend, was stuck with this problem for days! (scar 3.20 out now though)

yes i did that but it still deletes that folder ?

Is there a deifference from downloading scar 3.20 and some older verison?..... I mean it gonna be updated anywayz right? :o

Wow i solved alot of problems from reading ur guys replys thanka alot every1 :)

Dont double post, Or atleast put a (Sorry for double post).

Here's a good way to do things:
Turn that piece of shit UAC off.
Problem solved.

I ran into this problem a couple of times on Vista (64 and 32) but here's how I solved it:
1. Download the latest subversion and install.
2. Download the latest SCAR version and install.
3. Open Scar and go to File>Download Includes then click and it should have downloaded the plugins that couldn't be moved. Also click File>SRL SVN just in case.
4. Go to C:Program Files(86)>SCAR 3.20 (or whatever version is current)>Includes>place inside plugins folder.
5. Okay since the title is fairly obvious, just open up that last folder and copy all the contents and then open up the Plugins folder (C:Program Files(86)>SCAR 3.20>Plugins and paste!
6. Finally open up SCAR go to tools>options>SRL Download and click the SRL repository. After click move plugins to see that you don't get that bloody error anymore-because you actually moved them already! haha!

Thanks for making that thread.

last person posted two months ago and that's not how you do it now, at least that's now how i was told to do it.

i have vista and i can open scar and everything but when i try to install srl or whatever it says it couldn't move the plugins. and i've never had scar on this computer before, so thats no the problem.
