I have version 1.1.56 installed (after update from version about 0.17), and enabled experimental releases. Start the game. Game offers to update to 1.1.57. Confirm; the update package is downloaded, but the update fails with the following error: "Checking update packages failed: File C:/Program Files/Factorio/data/../doc-html/LuaForce.html has unexpected content".

The following is in the log:

Your installation is corrupted, you need to reinstall the game.

I have done so. (Do you want me to send you the file in question?)

No need, this corruption is usually caused by antivirus software interfering.
