version check error ps4 post HW pre-order code

[Credor]

But if the error is with the HW download, there'd be no point in updating because it'll update to the latest found version, which in my case is the HW patch. so it'll just reinstall the glitched file?

Problem is, IMO, with update checking, not with real update. In yours case, you have latest version, but launcher still will does checking (launcher check for update after every login, before game will launch).
