We mod Problem

I got it working again. Problem was between chair and keyboard and not with WeMod, nor due to a Windows update. It was because of a Norton 360 update. This update had cleared all the whitelisted apps. So I had to whitelist (in Norton 360: ‘Exclude from scans’) folders %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\WeMod and %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\WeMod again.

I had done a ‘clean’ reinstall (which ultimately had not been necessary) with the following steps:

  1. Removed %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\WeMod
  2. Removed %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\SquirrelTemp
  3. Removed %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\WeMod
  4. Removed all registry keys pointing to ‘WeMod’ (BACK UP THE REGISTRY FIRST!!!)
  5. Restart PC
  6. Run WeMod-Setup.exe
  7. Close WeMod (also in system tray)
  8. Exclude %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\WeMod and %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\WeMod from Antivirus scans
  9. Launch WeMod
  10. Profit

So I think removing the registry keys resolved the issue of the installation errors(?). See WeMod will not install

All the best wishes for 2025!
