Move all your contents from your ArmA 2 addons folder to your ArmA 2 OA addons folder.

Does not apply in this case, not with this message.

It is "Addons" in ARMA 2 folder and "Common" in ARMA 2 Operation Arrowhead.

DayZCommander is obsolete these days, because of the way the Beta Patches work. Until Josh sorts it out there will only be issues when trying to launch DayZ on the newest beta with DayZCommander. See this:

 

 

but it appears "wrong cd key"

 

Wouldn't happen, if you go over Steam.

 

 

In short:

 

  • go to your "ARMA 2 Operation Arrowhead" folder and delete the "@DayZ" folder.
  • Go to Steam, download "ARMA 2: DayZ Mod"
  • Launch ARMA 2: DayZ Mod

Make sure you're joining a server that is on the correct version, both the server-version in general as well as their missionfile, as this is something that changed in the last patch.

 

Make sure to test different servers.
