Failed to decompress buffer [68,-3] Thread - Desura

Failed to decompress buffer [68,-3]"

I receive this error every time when trying to install any game. This happens after the client finishes downloading the game. What does that mean and how do I fix this? Thanks.

Same here...I have about 20 games now that I can't install due to this error. I tried reinstalling desura, deleted cache folder, and disabled antivirus.
Win8 x64, i7-3930K, 64gb ram

I am having trouble with this very issue. If somone has any information on how to fix this, we would be most appreciative.

Files support issue, no response in over a month...guess I'm just not meant to use desura...

If you go into the Desura/cache folder and delete everything, that will sometimes temporarily fix the problem, key words being 'sometimes' and 'temporarily'.

Also, turning off "Clean MCFs after use" seems to help a little.

Seeing this problem is from 2012, there is no excuse for this still happening. Every time I install a game on Desura, there's a 50/50 chance of getting a random error message, and there seems to be literally NO support.

Does anyone know what the MCF does?

This is now happening to me 100% of the time and Desura is completely useless. Does anyone at the company actually read any of this? Are there ANY plans to fix any of the endless problems with this service, or do we all need to stop using it now?

EDIT: I managed to fix it. Copying my games folder and deleting and reinstalling everything. I can now reinstall games. I didn't want to do that, though, because now all my favorites are gone and all my games are marked as uninstalled. I also can't help but think this is just going to happen again.
