Surprised Zwift havent fixed it yet.
Just reinstalled my PC and still having this problem.
Used the script to download the updates and everything is working again.

I'm kinda surprised this works. Usually, the Z113 error is caused when files pulled down from Zwift's update server don't match correct checksum values - basically when components in the update fail to completely download or end up corrupted. I take it your Python script works more reliably because it tries to download the files multiple times after a checksum mismatch whereas Zwift simply reports the update failed?

Can I get a Python 3+ compatible version of this code... tried now and started seeing quite some Print syntax errors, was about parantheses...tried my best to get that going. Now, I face ....

Downloading manifest..
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\Zwift\download_zwift_updates.py", line 104, in

File "D:\Zwift\download_zwift_updates.py", line 74, in main
latest_manifest = get_latest_zwift_manifest(outdir)
File "D:\Zwift\download_zwift_updates.py", line 22, in get_latest_zwift_manifest
file(os.path.join(output_dir, ZWIFT_CUR_VER_FILE), "w+").write(cur_ver_file.content)
NameError: name 'file' is not defined

... my little reading around it points to Python version compatibility, etc.

I had Z113 patcher.cpp problem while trying to install Zwift.
The method provided by Kostyay helped me and finally Zwift is working!!!
Dear @nadodiganesh yo should change "<path\to\zwift\install\dir>" to insall dir where Zwift was installed. I mean you should write this command to cmd

C:\Python27\python download_zwift_updates.py "C:\Program Files (x86)\Zwift"
