Freelancer Mod Manager Unable To Activate Mods Windows 7

    Hi everyone,


    I am new to the forums but have been an avid player of Freelancer since 2005.


    I have recently upgraded my computer system to Windows 7, Freelancer it self has installed successfully and so has the Mod Manager.


    But for some reason, when I click "Acitvate Mod", it says it was unable to do this. Please see attached screenshot.


    When I go to view the report, the file will not open.


    Any support would be fantastic! :]


    Yours,

    Thanks everyone!


    Yes, you were partly right....I am the only user on the system so I am default Admin, I found that if I right click, then properties, then compatibility, and set it to run in compatibility for Windows XP SP3 it runs fine.


    Thanks again :)

    doesn't always mean you're default admin. if you ran safe mode there'd be two accounts, ADMIND and your username. That's what "Run as administrator" means.

    Ah, fair enough mate, I don't use Windows that much, just changed from Ubuntu to see what it's like.

    Plus, to skip this step, check "Always run as Admin" in the file properties under the Combatibility tab. So you only have to click yes at the UAC

    Not recommended. It's a security feature after all. I did deactivate it under Vista because there it was really annoying. But in 7 it's not so bad
