I keep getting this error message when I try to save a merged patch with FO3 Plugin Utility.

 

Does anybody know why? I'm using this instead of FO3 Edit because I'm having issues trying to make changes from other patches stick.

Looks like windows UAC (User Account Control) is denying you to access/modify that file.

 

How to remedy this?

 

1 solution would be to disable windows UAC. (not recommended if you're not an advanced computer user)

 

Another would be to change user permission for your entire Fallout 3 directory. (right-click Fo3 folder > properties > security)

 

Your best long term solution however, would be to install Fo3 in a folder not affected by windows UAC.

"C:\Games\Fallout 3" for example.
