macaronianime Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 So I have never used enb's with skyrim before, and I very much wanted to use this enb. I followed a youtube tutorial perfectly, and when it came to installing the enb from the realvision launcher, I had an error that said that I did not have permission to do so. Ive had this problem before, with files not allowing permission. I thought I had fixed my problem by no longer having steam or my other games or files in program files x86. Apparently thats not the case. I tried looking this issue up online and how to allow access to all files with the security settings, but I could not change anything. Can anyone help me out with this please? I know my computer can handle the enb, and I downloaded everything correctly, so now Im at a loss as to how to get passed this permission issue. Thankyou.

BarefootWarrior Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 This is interesting. I had this issue some time ago, but it wasn't the 'file' itself. It was an OS issues, in this case Win 7 / 64 bit. You don't mention what OS you are using and that might help. In any case, I'm going to guess that if you try in install anything requiring an 'installer' you are going to get a flag saying you don't have permission to install. I would suggest looking up 'not able to install programs without permission' or something like that for windows, MS has a quick fix that will correct this issue. Turns out that sometimes an update corrupts this feature and needs to be fixed. I could not install anything even using 'run as administrator'. The other option is to manually install the ENB which I always do and that isn't difficult to do and that will avoid using the 'installer' that comes with that ENB. Anyway, from what you describe, this sounds like a 'Windows' issue so I'd try looking there and not at the ENB itself. Hope this helps, just throwing it out there.

macaronianime Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 Thankyou, i do appreciate the feeback. It must be some kind of windows issue. I found a fix for it but I did not have the prompt and boxes to check that were meant to be there, which is odd. I have all my hidden files ticked to be seen and altered. I am using Windows 10 on 64 bit. Ill try and install manually, Ive just never done that before. Ill give it a shot though. Thankyou! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macaronianime Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 Well shoot, I forgot I did try to do it manually, but when I tried to put the files from the enb into the skyrim folder and not the data folder, I had the same problem again. The permission is not granted. Quite frustrating :T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macaronianime Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 I just wanted to update. I fixed my issue. after digging around and playing with security settings, I managed to delete all the other users on Skyrim except for myself. It now works and it looks great!

BarefootWarrior Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Good to hear, since I don't use Win 10 (until I have too) I don't know how the security features work. Good job, and have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
