Help would be appreciated, thanks. Also, I already tried uninstalling NMM and running FOMM and it still doesn't work, so I'm not sure NMM is the problem.

No thanks to anyone here, I fixed the problem and FOMM is running fine with no issues.

How did you fix the problem? My FOMM seems to be having the same issue. :pinch:

The problem is with the error message. In my case it was caused by a virus I didn't know of, a hijacker in my registry. I used Malwarebytes Anti-malware to scan and get rid of the virus. Though, if you're using Malwarebytes, know that the virus will block you from opening it on your desktop. You have to go the actual executable in the downloaded Malwarebytes files and rename "mbam" to something else, then run it.

 

After MBAM cleaned up the hijacker, my FOMM ran fine.
