Nexon Game Manager ERROR CODE = -46 (15206, 0) occurs when the cyclilic redundancy check (CRC) of the installer file itself fails. This means the downloaded installer file is corrupt or there is an issue with the CRC process.
System error code[]
0 (0x0) - ERROR_SUCCESS
The operation completed successfully.
Example: Download cut short[]
The example below explains what occures when the download is cut short.
In the example below, the downloaded file is supposed to return a size value of -1761136653 but was -2147482910. NGM uses hexadecimal data displayed as decimal numeric fields, which can only hold a value from −2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647. To reach values Higher than 2,147,483,647, negatives are used of the max hexadecimal number (which is 4294967296).
- 4294967296 -1761136653 = 2,533,830,642 bytes
- 4294967296 -2147482910 = 2,147,484,385 bytes
The game installer was expected to be 2,533,830,642 bytes but returned as 2,147,484,385 bytes, meaning the download was interrupted before it could finish. This results in the CRC completing it's check prematurely (it reached the end of the file before it was expected) and returing a completed code "0".
