Since about Monday, when I try to update several applications in the Google Play Store, I receive the error message "Package file has a bad manifest" when it tries to install the update. I have never seen this message before. Can someone advise on how to fix this error?

Very much a +1 here

This appeared randomly a few days ago and applies to some installed apps and also to new apps such as San Andreas.

Very frustrating.. If anyone could help us it would be greatly appreciated.

I would suggest you to go to applications and uninstall Google play updates... Later Google play will auto install to the latest version

I'm having this problem too. Been researching it and other people experiencing it have bad internet connections, and I just tested my connection too and it's terrible so must be caused by corruption. Gonna try again on a better connection.
