Im trying to start a new instance of Valheim and i cant download the application. I get this log output.

 [19:18:58] [Core Info]            : Checking for AMP updates...
[19:18:58] [Core Error]           : IOException
[19:18:58] [Core Error]           : [0] (IOException) : The file '/home/amp/.ampdata/instances/GirlPower/Valheim/' already exists.

I have tried to delete the Valheim folder but then the log file complains about the missing directory.

I can update the application in a different instance

I think I solved it by comparing the new instances "Generic module.kvp" with an older working instance.

diff ./.ampdata/instances/Ragnark/GenericModule.kvp ./.ampdata/instances/GirlPower/GenericModule.kvp

I found that on line 37 there were differences after App.UpdateSources

Old: "UpdateSource":4 And "UpdateSourceData":"896660"

New: "UpdateSource":1 And "UpdateSourceData":""

So I manually changed the new files data to match the old and that seems to have done the trick. Update is now working.
