SRKabir Posted May 29 Posted May 29 I am trying to install mods for skyrim, and it is my first time using vortex, I cannot instaal any mods or collections, because i get the following error: Vortex needs to access a file that is write protected. When you configure directories and access rights you need to ensure Vortex can still access data directories This is usually not a bug in Vortex. code: EPERM
ChemBoy1 Posted May 29 Posted May 29 Which Vortex version? What is your Skyrim install path? It is plastered all over the forum that you need to install games outside of the Program Files folders to guarantee write access. Or, you can Take Ownership of the whole Program Files (x86) folder by various means.
