A.I.Person.: Do you have updates blocked in galaxy?For some reason or another the updates are being blocked.
louie354: It sounds like that's my problem. If so, how do I stop blocking the updates?
Open galaxy, click on Witcher 3, click on "More", click "settings". If the settings you want are already ticked try ticking the other option then reticking the one you want. It can take a while sometimes for downloads to start sometimes.
Edit: After checking/ applying those settings if a download doesn't start or nothing changes you can also try verify/repair in the "Manage instalation" section.
