NMM bug fix release and download hacking problems fixed

[Thorne67]

In response to post #7725886.

Well...I'm here every day all day and haven't seen any reports on trouble with the last "hack" and have continued my downloading and tests so I could say "yes" to your question. Other than that unless you see it FLAGGED by users or especially a Site MODERATOR yer safe.

@Thorne67 look at the top of any of the game sites that use NMM - find the 'install NMM ' - click on that to be taken to the NMM download page. Scroll down and read the info on NMM. Look for the orange highlighted parts and click on them (These are called 'Links') to be taken to the various forums, bug report section, tutorials and other stuff relating to NMM.

I'll tell him when he gets back from the hospital. He's in for heart surgery and kidney removal (one) due to complications with his diabetes. He's a bit addled having had a few strokes so generally he only goes one link into a page.

I'm actually surprised he learned how to upload files here. He hasn't done that since Morrowind.

Still having mod installation issues, when I try to uninstall some mods, (ERSO and Magic Duel) they just stay there.

took me a while to read all the comment

 

no wonder the last few weeks the connection went full retard lol

 

any ho, manage to update it to latest version, so far so good. The only thing is i lost all the previous mod i've download before i apply the update *GASP*

 

but luckily oblivion ran as usual, with all the previous mod still intact, not sure why but i checked back OBMM and looks like all the Mod before update still there, just not showing up in Nexus Mod Manager in Mod's tab.

 

lastly, thanks to the update, now no more readme screw up!!!

aha ya i got that "virus" "malware" what ever you want to call it......but lucky i found a exploit with it to hide the display and gain access to the computer, (This was done on a Win 7 Ultimate 64bit) So hit Ctrl-Alt-Del hit shutdown then it should go back to desktop and it will say something along the lines, "Windows is shutting down, closing background programs." then hit cancel as soon as that shows up, if it does not and just shutsdown then boot back up and as soon as your on the desktop open as many programs as you can then the "virus" should come up, then try again. If this does not work I'm sorry i cant help further, well i can but I'm done now so....bye.

 

edit: Oops almost forgot when the "wall" hiding your desktop is gone get some kind of anti-virus and run "full" scans, I got 4 of them and its gone now. I used Hijack-This, Malwarebytes, Spyhunter, and HitmanPro. So you can try any/all of them if you want too......i mean i can't stop you......can i?......no i cant....
