CD Key in use.

Recommended Posts

Tonight roughly 9pm I was playing DayZ with a group of mates, went AFK for two minutes, come back and my DayZ was completely shut. I thought okay I will re-open it. Upon re-opening I got "CD Key in use". I restarted my PC and I would get errors in Six Launcher and nothing from Steam would work. I fixed that and I could play DayZ. Upon joining a server my game froze, crashed and I received "CD Key in use". I restored my PC back to a day ago and it worked, just then I crashed again and now I get "CD Key in use". I have read other threads about this.. Nothing has worked for me and it is REALLY frustrating me.

What I have done

  • Restarted PC
  • Re-installed DayZ mod
  • Re-installed Six Launcher
  • Run Arma then Arma 2:OA, then DayZ - still CD Key in use.
  • Full virus scan, no virus'/malware found.

If anyone has a solution to this, please post it here, PM me or add me on Skype (KeyaKev)

Lots of love,

- Josh.

Hey mate,

a lot of people have the same problem. Come over here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/55668-cd-key-in-use-issues/

We allready wrote to BIS-Support and the told us that they work on this issues. Maybe in this thread you can find some news.

Have you tried reinstalling and getting dayz to work without sixlauncher thingy?

You have the Steam-version of Arma, right?
