Anyone having problems installing this update?

I had the exact same error. Hit ignore and it seemed to continue and completely normally. Really weird filename it mentions also.

Yes, I've got that same install message. Interesting that Black Square didn't catch this.

There's nothing to catch, it's an OS limitation and there is a well-known workaround: https://support.justflight.com/support/solutions/articles/17000153015-file-error-0x3-during-the-installation
Many of us don't have that issue.

But with the previous aircraft we never had this issue...that's weird why some users have this and others don't.

@Fabbi It's down to how long the paths get inside the package folder. In the case of the Commander, this html path often pushes users over the limit:
bksq-aircraft-commander114\html_ui\Pages\VCockpit\Instruments\Generic\Misc\bksq-aircraft-commander114\BlackSquareTablet\Shared\Assets\commander114ElectricalVisualizer.svgIf you add the path to your Community folder to that, in my case it becomes 271 characters long and Windows won't allow it, even with 64bit versions of the installation software.
Other aircraft have shorter names and more people fall under the path size limit. As this is one of the longest we've had, more people are seeing it.
For the Commander, I've expanded the default installation option in the installer to pre-check whether the package will fit inside the path limit, and if it won't it will send you to the custom location option that will get you around this limit.
Hope that helps explain what's going on.
