XrubiX Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I fixed mine. My problem was that somehow, bEnableFileSelection=1, got deleted from my Fallout4prefs.ini file. So, check that and see if it has that line right under [Launcher]. Thank you ! it works ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripwire4 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I also am experiencing this issue on a Win 10 machine. I had no problems with my fiancee's Win 8.1 machine, however. No amount of reinstalling after manual deletion, double- triple- and quadruple- checking my .inis will fix this; it's a compatibility issue somewhere. Windows 8.1 and 10 run on the same architecture but there are small underlying changes that users don't see that could affect this program's ability to access the .ini files for verification. I even ran Fallout 4 Ultimate Tweak Tool and made up a brand new ini, and modified it automatically with no luck. The only thing non-standard about my setup is that Fallout is installed to C:\SSD Steam Library\Fallout 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MavHunter Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 bEnableFileSelection=1 didn't fix this for me sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith3 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I'm having the same problem, but only with this mod: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/1478/? . I installed it through NMM, but it doesn't work in the game. When I click by it to disable then when I reenable it gives me the "unable to retrieve" line. I double checked my ini files and they are both correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imprezza86 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Just ran into the same issue. Brand new install of fallout 4 and nmm on windows 10, even brand new pc. I've verified everything is correct in the ini files and even tried adjusting the security to see if that would fix it but it all falls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've verified everything is correct in the ini files and even tried adjusting the security to see if that would fix it but it all falls. Me again. Did some more playing around and went ahead removed nmm and then reinstalled it. However, this time I went ahead and installed under program files. I then made sure that my login id had read/write access to C:\Games\Nexus Mod Manager. I realize that my id was already a member of the administrators group but I decided to go ahead and added it anyway. Now NMM is working under windows 10. I did have to update the fallout4prefs.ini again. The only issue I have now is that NMM keeps unchecking all the mods under plugins for some strange reason. I have to make sure they are all checked. They seem to come unchecked after I exit the game. Still trying to figure that one out. Anyway everything is working except for the mods that need to be update to the last game version 1.2. At least I can map the numeric pad again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brettandor Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 I just fixed mine. My problem was that for some reason in the Data folder there was a second FalloutPrefs.ini file. Deleting that and making sure there was still one in the My Games/Fallout4 location fixed it. Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
