I'm trying to install the kvatchaftermath mod.

When I exctract the mod it tells me that a file is read only I tried to overwrite it and the second time I didn't overwrite it.

When I enter oblivion It close and I get an error: access is denied message.

any idea?

How did you get that error? Did it happen when you unchecked the read only box (which may be under a different tab, I forget), then clicked OK? If so thats a very weird error...

 

As for thumbs.db... I think that might possibly be a system file of some sort, perhaps. I've definitely seen it before somewhere... It certainly shouldn't be in that folder though.

Oh wait, do you mean that it says that when you try to extract the mod? hmm...

 

If you open the archive up, and find the file, you should be able to right click on it and edit the properties to not be read only like a normal file, using your archiver. I'm not sure all of them support it though... I know IZarc does.

 

Another possibility that just occurred to me is that the file might be corrupt. Try redownloading it.
