First time I log in to the Nexus forums in nearly a year, just so that I can express my most sincere gratitude to you, Object279, and the previous other kind souls who provided help. I followed the explanations, it worked, splendid, thank you! ^_^ (And, for the context, I combined the mods to have more than one talent per level, with the mod removing the dark visual effect from Dark swords - I was ending up resorting to Cat potions in every cave otherwise.) If the link may help, as Gibbed's original mod has disappeared from the Nexus, the new link would be: http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher2/mods/768/ It's really great there's a community like that, when we need help. Thanks to everyone :)

I came here because I had the exact same problem while instalilng a mod. Read-only was also the problem. Tirnoney: THANK YOU! :smile:

Hello! I wonder if I could ask you for advice, if that's not asking too much :smile: You see, I would like to make a backup of BOTH my Skyrim game, and my Nexus Mods Manager information. At the present time, I know that a backup of Skyrim requires to save "c:\Program Files (x86)\The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim\*" and also "C:\Users\Sabin\Documents\My Games\Skyrim\*" If, some day, my hard disk dies and I want to play Skyrim again, I can simply restore those two folders from a backup, and I'm good to go. ... however, restoring those two folders will give me a fully working game, BUT I will not be able to use the Nexus Mods Manager to activate or deactivate mods anymore, isn't that right ? (This "isn't that right" is an open, earnest question, I am not sure) And in that case, would you know which additional folders would require to be backed up ? I have the Nexus Mods Manager program installed in "c:\Program Files (x86)\Nexus Mod Manager\Skyrim\*" : would that be that one ? Or would another important folder have to be added to the backups ? I would be tempted to backup everything and call it a day, but file sizes matter, too ^^ My "Program Files" Skyrim folder is 18 GB large, my Nexus Mods Manager folder is almost 6 GB large... My saves folder is half a gig... I'm not even sure I'm not forgetting other important folders... So, I don't want to make mistakes and regret it later, let us say :smile: Thanks a lot if you can give me your opinion on it, if I have the proper folders, or if some huge folders can be left out to reduce the size of the backup :smile:
