I get an error when I try to activate my mods.

When ever I try to install a mod, no matter what it is, it keeps saying either: a problem occured during install being used by another process. I've tried turning off my antivirus btw. or I get the sevenzipsharp error, this is really frusturating me. If anyone knows a solution please let me know.

We need more info. Specifically:

What mod manager (if any) do you use?

If you use NMM, do you simply use the "download with manager" button on each mod's file page and then activate with NMM, or do you download manually THEN activate with NMM?

What Skyrim are you using? (I know this is posted in SE, but sometimes people don't realize that before posting.)

What is your rig's components (especially GPU) and OS?

Excellent! Happy gaming! :thumbsup:

 

If you decide to start a new character someday, may I recommend that you manually download all your mods THEN activate them with NMM. Yes, it's an extra step, but it gives you more control over your mods AND you have the mods permanently stored on your HD separate from your NMM installation. That way, if your NMM ever goes belly-up and you have to re-install, your mods are still sitting there.

 

Also a good idea to manually download mods that you think you might use in a future playthrough in case a mod author removes his/her mods because, oh, say, he/she didn't like who got elected president and concluded that nearly everyone using his/her mods must now all be people who did very bad things in Europe around 1937-1945. (Not naming any names here, of course...)
