Hello. I want to make that player download one file from server and overwrite default one (at client computer) so how can I do that ?

The problem is that the server only checks if the file exists on client pc but if an older version of a file exists on client pc, it won`t download the file let alone overwrite it.

Maybe somebody knows a way...

Which is the way it should be. There should be no way around it! At least on these forums there isn't.

Can you please explain why it should be that way?

So you can't overwrite a player's config files or anything else that could screw up their game.

I was not thinking OOTB, now I understand why. Good to know.
