M48A5 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 It sounds like you have the game installed in "Program Files". The Program Files folder is under the control of the Windows User Access Control and it will not allow any changes to be made to an executable file. FOSE makes changes to the Fallout 3.exe so FOSE is being blocked by the UAC. You will need to uninstall (not move) and reinstall Fallout 3 to a location outside of Program FIles. Also, you cannot use a mod manager to install FOSE. It must be done manually. Do not use LOOT to sort your load order, use BOSS instead http://boss-developers.github.io/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
