dubiousintent Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 It's an "EXE" installer file. Just run it and follow instructions. DO NOT install it under "C:\Program Files" or "C:\Program File(x86)". Those are "protected system folders" and will cause you problems. Choose a different folder. To recap our current understanding of this issue (since this is an old thread): As of 08 May 2018, the Nexus has changed some site security to come into compliance with the new "European Union General Data Protection Regulation" (EU GDPR) rules. This breaks older versions of NMM and other tools using the older unsecured API. It is usually reported as being "blocked by the Windows firewall" or causing a "script" or "W3C XML Schema" error installing mods. You will need to update it from NMM on GitHub (or this Nexus NMM download page but it's older than the GitHub version). Check the version numbers between those sites and use the latest release. Please see this Nexus site news article for details.Some people are finding that even after updating NMM to v0.65.4 they still get a "script exception" message when installing some mods (such as UIO and MCM). This seems to be resolved by this suggestion from user ElysianMod:* Run NMM as an "Administrator privileges" account.* Go to NMM "Settings".* Enable "Add Shell Extensions for Supported File Types".* Then restart NMM. (You should not need "Administrator privileges" this time.)(Supposedly this fix is included in "unofficial" update v0.65.7 and later to NMM on GitHub. Currently on v0.65.11.) -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simondarkmoon Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 When such problems occur, it's often useful to simply remove the "tail" of the link back to the last "/". In this instance: https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/Nexus-Mod-Manager/releases/works. (There were some "non-printing" characters on the end of the posted link, breaking it.) So does: https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/Nexus-Mod-Manager/which gets you to the parent page. -Dubious- Gee, I've looked everywhere for a fix... update nexus by these links worked fine as glass of wine hahahaha.
