Try to delete your existing game folder before replacing it with the appropriate version. Make sure Steam is not trying to auto-update your game by right-clicking Dark Souls III in your library > Properties > Updates > set "Automatic Updates" to "Only update this game when I launch it" (or change the value for AutoUpdateBehavior to 1 in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\appmanifest_374320.acf).

Note that you have to launch SteamDepotDownpatcher.exe again whenever you restart Steam if you want to download a depot. If you receive any error, try restarting Steam.

Download the latest release of Steam Manifest Patcher. Read the respective wiki page or Downpatching for further information. There is no different method as of right now. Item Dupe & Tumblebuff do NOT work in current patch. Press CTRL+F to search for specific questions!
