DrCoomerHD Posted January 17, 2024 Share Posted January 17, 2024 I am currently trying to get back into fallout and wanted to start fresh so i went down my mod list and uninstalled every mod one by one (deleting all archives as well) until my list was empty. I then downloaded a small starter mod collection (fo4 essentials) and I'm now stuck with a fo4 fps physics fix that i can't edit, interact with, or delete. its a inaccessible empty file. attached are the responses of what nexus and my computer keep telling me. I'm pretty slow when it comes to instructions but if anyone has ANY ideas on how to fix this please share! I've tried looking up solutions and none seem to be the issues I'm having.

Pickysaurus Posted January 17, 2024 Share Posted January 17, 2024 Try simply deleting that file and download it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not permissions with the file i can't edit, move, or delete it. its a husk file with nothing in it, it seems. its not even in vortex either. its like a phantom file.

HellFreezer Posted January 18, 2024 Share Posted January 18, 2024 Maybe your Windows update was requiring a restart that was pending. Until restarted after updating it's possible that the OS had some permissions locked out. Also may we assume that you are logged in as the username "ender" as shown in that path? If not then unless your account has Admin privileges, you would naturally be prevented from accessing files under that other username. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe a *.zip archive file could exist with nothing in it. If you could not access it at all, how do you know that it is an "empty husk"? Did you view it's details showing it had a file size of 0 K? If so then that would be a bogus status, requiring a refresh of the explorer window view (or a repeat command of DIR if you are at the command prompt).
