6. try installing the patch again
Should it continue to fail after performing the above steps, starting with MailEssentials 2015 SR1, there is a registry key which can skip the cab verification altogether.
1. Add a new registry key under HKLM\SOFTWARE\GFI\MailEssentials\Config named SkipPatchVerification and set it to 1
2. check the debug log file PatchPlugin.log found under the Attendant to confirm it works by looking for "Skipping verification..."
