Fallout 3 installed on C: starts by H:

I have installed Fallout 3 on C:, Fallout 3 H: is a backup of C:.

At the beginning I had installed mods, but I couldn't find them in the launcher (data file).
Later I copied a mod to H: and could select it in the launcher. If I rename Fallout 3 to H:, the list in the launcher is empty!

So I start Fallout 3 of C: the plugins are loaded by H: ... WTF

Now I ask myself the question, which file contains the plugins of C:.

Under Win7 there were no problems with it, now I have Win 10.

thanks

What is the full path to your install on the "C" drive?

 

Did you check the Fallout 3 data folder on the "H" drive?

 

What mod manager are you using? And where is it located? Did you specify which drive to use when you installed the mod manager?

 

To avoid any problems in the future, rename the file on "H" to "Fallout3backup.exe"

Thank you,

Fallout3 on H: finally works again. I had problems with XLive before.

The plugins are loaded by H: as they should be.

Renaming the EXE to H: has no effect on my Game on C:

 

C;\Spiele\Fallout3

H;\Spiele\Fallout3

and FOMM

 

FOMM: System. NullReferenceException: The object reference was not set to an object instance.

But FOMM is not important, it is only needed to open or edit the ESP. I prefer to install mods myself.

 

I had the Nexus Mod Manager installed before, after a mistake I uninstalled it again.

I don't know if it has anything to do with the problem.

 

I'm copying Fallout H: to C now: Let's see if it works out. :wink:

Edit:

Fallout 3 on H: runs now without problems, no idea why it works. Fallout C: I first renamed it, then moved it to my USB hard drive as a backup, so that the error doesn't occur again.

 

Thx
