Hello, I'm having a problem with updating Jdownloader 2. In short, Jdownloader 2 fails to install any new updates. Also, it fails to install the FFmpeg package

here are the error details:

org.jdownloader.update.SelfUpdateException: Selftest has been terminated unexpectedly
at org.jdownloader.update.SelfUpdateClient.finishSelfUpdate(SelfUpdateClient.java:312)
at org.jdownloader.update.UpdateManager.runFinishSelfUpdate(UpdateManager.java:957)

note: I'm using the software on win 7 x86 with Java JDK 8 update 121 installed. I did try re-installing it several times but the problem still persists. Can someone have any solution? Thanks for reading.

Something prevents the update on your system. Please check that permissions are given and no other application/firewall/av messes with the update/installation.
What firewall/AV do you use? In case it provides sort of *auto containment* feature, disable it for JDownloader as JDownloader requires read/write access to its own files!

I don't have any AV on my computer and the firewall is disabled. Also, as far as I can tell, there's no software or service which denies the permission of Jdownloader at the time the soft was running. The strange thing is I can install plugins such as info bar or event scripter but can't install updates.

Please close JDownloader. delete the folders log, tmp and update and the file Core.jar and start JDownloader again.
When issue shows up again, please zip the logs folder and send to support@jdownloader.org
As an alternative we can take a look at this together via Teamviewer, just contact us via support@jdownloader.org

I'm having some problems installing today's update. That happens once in several months usually, previous updates on this week worked just fine.
