zokiir Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I have been using the same version of Nexus Mod Manger since I signed up. A number of months ago, my version would not update anymore, but it still would download modules. Now, it will not download modules at all, logging out every time I try installing a module. I thought it might be time to switch to Vortex, but, Vortex would not install. I then tried installing the latest version of the Neuxs mod manager, but the files still would not install. Both the Vortex and the latest version of Nexus mod Manager have a .5 extension on the file, and Microsoft could not find a program to open, and thus Install the files. Can someone help me, please?Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 You need to get a new AntiVirus program.Your antivirus is renaming all of the EXE files you download by either changing .EXE to .5 or ADDING .5 to the end like this "Vortex.exe.5" or "NexusModManager.5" or "NexusModManager.exe.5"You need to rename the Vortex INstaller or NMM installer so it has an EXE extension againAnd get rid of that Antivirus that keeps renaming your files without you knowing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
