for all those running your server from steamcmd to update your server all you have to do is open steam command again login then use the string "force_install_dir (whereveryou installed your server)" space between _dir and the ark server directory mine is as follows for example
"force_install_dir C:\ArkServer"
and hit enter then proceed with the update string as follows
"app_update 346110 validate"
then let it run through and update then it should run as normal the 346110 number is more or less what tells steam what game or app u are updating its ark's appid number but i did this and it runs fine now the name of my server is sHtKiNgDoM password is turd feel free to join its being ran from a solid gaming rig off a ssd but will be brought down from time to time thanks for the help exi
