Description of my issue:
I just tried to update from 3.3.8 to 3.3.9 but got the error:

JFolder::files: Path is not a folder
ERRORNOTFINDJOOMLAXMLSETUPFILE
Invalid package type. The update can not proceed.

I thought I'd post this as I assume it's affecting others. I don't usually have these errors when updating.

I have now installed manually with success, but just wanted to raise this issue, because it doesn't usually happen with this website.

3.3.8 was a new install so it had no download ID. I only entered the download ID today directly before the upgrade. It wouldn't have updated in that short time surely.

I have just checked and the Download ID I had entered before the update attempt is identical to the one in my account now.

Right ok , thanks for the update

I had the same experience on another website and followed your solution and it worked, thanks!
