This problem has surfaced in conjuction with recent changes to the NMM API. You need to update your version of NMM.

 

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 version. Please see this Nexus site news article for details.

 

Edit: As of 13 May 2019 all "workarounds" that depend upon continued use of the old API will no longer function. That API has been removed, as previously announced more than two years ago. This includes but is not limited to:

  • Nexus Mod Manager v0.65.11 and lower
  • Mod Organiser 2 v2.1 and lower
  • Mod Organizer 1

This only affects their ability to login to and automate the download from the Nexus site.

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.
(Supposedly this fix is included in "unofficial" update v0.65.7 and later to NMM on GitHub.)
