What can I do if “An error occurred when trying to replace the existing file. Delete File failed; code 5.”?
Solution 1: Please make sure to exit the Driver Checker™ program prior to any updates; Driver Checker™ requires that you close the running application to successfully finish the updating process. If the Solution 1 can not solve this problem properly, please refer the Solution 2 for further help Solution 2: Please temporarily disable or exit the anti-virus programs on your computer, some of which are blocking any registry writing on the system startup entry and thus Driver Checker™ could not properly be installed on the user’ PC; Driver Checker™ does write into the startup entry in order to notify the user that there are problems needed to handle with, however, it does conflict with some anti-virus programs.
