Many mods suddenly don't work anymore

[molleke]

Hi Aslain,

 

For a while now, (latest updates from WG) something is wrong when installing your modpack. A lot of things I have selected do not work, i.e. Auto-login, Ping on interface, No Contour Icons, No minimap functions. While other mods do work like 3 row garage mod. I have tried to install 5 different updates of your modpack over the course of the last 2 weeks, with admin rights and AVg off.

 

A few days ago I even completely uninstalled WoT and your mods and installed again, but still the issues persist.

 

I tried to create a logfile, but I get an error from the log-file tool. (see imaged attached) hopefully you can help me out with this issue so I can send you the logfile.

This is not related with WG update or bug in my modpack, something in your PC is causing it. Looks like logs archiver cannot finish it's job :/

What about the forward slas (/) in the filename? Seems wrong?

See list of folders in the WoT folder, no \Aslains_modpack

[Aslain]

I will toy with paths in the logs archiver. Try it now: Aslains_WoT_Logs_Archiver.exe

thanks for the quick replies, seems something is really off in my PC  Tried the new log file but getting similar errors. Do you know what the code 2 refers to? I have to go to work now. I will try later to check and otherwise have to reinstall the pc

[Aslain]

Are you running the installer with admin rights?

[molleke]

Yes, and virus program off. Tried many versions and times, and reinstalled WoT as well. Still the issues persist. I think it started 2 weeks ago out of the blue. Very strange. Will reinstall later this week or try to do a recovery or so. Thanks for the help!

[Aslain]

You must have something unusual in your system, I've never encountered this problem myself on my PC, and my PC is ordinary one, without any serious changes. Good luck.

Sometimes right clicking the installer exe file and selecting run as administrator will solve the problem.  Even when you are logged in as admin and left click normally Windows can decide not to run something and not give a reason.  Right clicking and running bypasses this Windows decision making ability

Just tried installing the latest version of the modpack as administrator, like I have done with the previous versions. The issue still persists, als tried running the log archiver as Administrator, also same issue persists. Very weird everything else seems to work OK on my PC. Will try a reinstall the next few days when I have some time.

 

Thanks for the suggestion.

As Aslain indicated the error you are getting is not related to the modpack or wot.  It is related to windows itself.  Checking Microsoft, they are saying it is either corruption with the user account or a system file is corrupt. 

 

Below is a link from Microsoft.  Even thought they are talking about Windows 7, it would apply to other versions of Windows

You Sir, are my hero!  

 

 Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately it wasnt an easy fix by scnaning the system and fixing corrupt files. But after creating a new user account, everything works like normal again! Very strange that the only reason I noticed that this is issue is happening was by trying to install the modpack.. Very weird!

 

Aslain, you can close this now, issue solved!

Glad that your issue is resolved.
