Can't seem to turn on/off any mods

[yuedarkangel]

Hay guys first time poster but I have an issue that i cant seem to find an answer for. I used to be able to apply mods no problem a couple of months back never had any problems understanding how ti install or remove them. Now after getting the dlc I tried to put in some new mods but in the data files anything I check or un-check will reset itself upon me closing the window. I've tried using Mod manager and nvse, even completely ripped the game, saves, everything off and reinstalling (which takes 7 hours to re download, thx a lot steam) and still have no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Here is the error i get from the Mod Manager.

My guess is that you have a permission problem on your profile. That may happen on Win7 for some users (I don't know why).

 

Did you try to run the game/nvse/fomm as administrator? (rightclick on the link and use the "as admin" option)

Have you tried running FOMM as an administrator?

Same deal on Vista too. Run As Admin.

try turning off DEP (data execution prevention) or UAC (user account control, or something like that). i seem to remember getting that error a while back. making exceptions for fallout, fomm/nvmm, nvse, etc, might get rid of that error

thx for help guys got it fixed, deleted the plug-ins file from AppData\Local\FalloutNV and the game seemed to make a new one willing to allow me to change what mods im using.
