Installed STEP, Mod Organizer baked itself.

[Penlord]

I decided to install ultimate follower overhaul after I installed STEP.

 

...but because the file is really annoyingly put together on the nexus page, I removed the i version to install the j version.

 

 Or at least I thought.

 

 So I right clicked in the left pane in mod organizer and pressed remove mod (the addons were merged) okay. It removed.

I went to Downloads tab and right clicked on all three, pressed delete. An error popped up.

 

I went to my disk, mod organizer, downloads folder to manually delete it.

Said I don't have permission, not an admin. I am the admin of this PC. 

 

So I tried to install it again and merge it, MO gives error.

 

So I decided to install it with a different name, it worked. Ultimate Follower Overhaulz next to the Ultimate Follower Overhaul in "mods" folder. Hurrah.

 

 but how can I delete this?

Is MO set to run as administator? If deleting manually using windows, was another application using those files and they were therefore locked?

[DoubleYou]

1. Shift+Right-click the file/folder to be deleted

2. Open a command prompt as administrator (on Windows 8, WinKey+X has a shortcut)

3. Type del

4. Right-click in command prompt window and select paste. This should be the path to the file/folder within quotes.

5. Press enter

 

And if that doesn't work, boot into safe mode and delete the files.
