0 Freyrgjurd Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Just an addendum: It didn't work for me since I was using Chrome x64. Chrome won't interact with MO because of that. If not you case, then you need to edit the "Local State" file (it has no suffix. Open it with Wordpad or Notepad++) Follow this answer: https://forum.step-project.com/topic/4736-google-chrome-cant-download-from-skyrim-nexus-using-mo/
0 Gilgamesh Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 Alright look for addendum dont have it Open Local State Has no line about nxm so I take it it will not work for me using X64 chrome too.
0 GrantSP Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Firstly why are there two new threads open about this topic? You could have just added a comment to the existing thread. Aside from that, there is no problem with using Chrome 64bit and MO. As for the text appearing garbled, you are probably trying to view the text as Unicode instead of ascii. Now if there is no line that says: "nxm": false that simply means you need to follow the suggestion of line 6 in the forum post you are looking at.
0 Audley Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 I had this issue with both Google Chrome and Opera and I couldn't figure it out even after doing all the "fixes." The only thing that fixed this issue is to use the nxmhandler that is in the same place where you install MO. Open it and hit "set active" and hopefully doing this will solve the problem.
0 DoubleYou Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Generally I find that if the individual does everything on this list, eventually it will work:Click the globe button.Go to the Nexus tab in Settings and click the Associate with "Download with manager" links button.Go to your ModOrganizer directory and run the nxmhandler application. If the program is pointing to Mod Organizer, click the Register Active button, click yes at the prompt, and close. If the program is not pointing to Mod Organizer, right-click in the window and select Add, select the game you are handling, browse to the appropriate ModOrganizer.exe application, click OK, click the Register Active button, click yes at the prompt, and close.If you are using Google Chrome:Locate the "Local State" file (enter %LocalAppData%\Google\Chrome\User Data\ in the Windows Explorer address bar). Open the file in a text editor such as Notepad while Google Chrome is closed. Search for "nxm" (Click Ctrl+F and enter nxm). Delete the line that says "nxm": false (if true, still delete the line). Save the file. Next time you click the Download with Manager button, Chrome should pop-up a dialog asking to launch the application registered for nxm links. Click Launch.If you are using Firefox, open Firefox, and inside Options, go to the Applications tab. Search for nxm and point it toward the nxmhandler application located inside the ModOrganizer directory if the option exists.
0 Gilgamesh Posted November 19, 2014 Author Posted November 19, 2014 Will that did not work. So I'm just using FireFox but thanks for the help
0 GrantSP Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Did you not try and open the 'Local State' file as described in the wiki?Regardless of whether you are trying to use MO or not, that file exists as it is an installation file from Google.The "nxm": false line is just another line in the section called:"protocol_handler": If you are unsure how to change the encoding in Notepad++, just open it with Windows' Notepad.It might possibly, though unlikely, be the case if you have a non-English Windows setup and the default is set to something other than Western language. I haven't used Notepad++ for many years now and I can't recall the options.
0 Gilgamesh Posted November 19, 2014 Author Posted November 19, 2014 I have already did this GrantSP I have opened 'Local State' looked for "nxm" delete the line and run nxmhandler.exe did nothing for Google chrome still only give me the pop up for NMM. So I'm using FireFox
0 p4ck3tl055 Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Not to beat a dead horse, but isn't this simply a matter of running Chrome on Windows 8/8.1? This worked perfectly for me when I ran Windows 7, but as soon as I upgraded, MO ceased to "download with manager" through Chrome. (I'm running x64 as well) I even posted on the sticky about it.
0 GrantSP Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) Not to beat a dead horse, but isn't this simply a matter of running Chrome on Windows 8/8.1? This worked perfectly for me when I ran Windows 7, but as soon as I upgraded, MO ceased to "download with manager" through Chrome. (I'm running x64 as well) I even posted on the sticky about it.Well if that is the case we still need to find out what the differences are that make Chrome on Windows 8.1 bugout where Chrome on Windows 7 is fine. Since I don't have 8.1 I can't check this so I wonder if anyone with that version could test this for me. Click the 'Start'button, type "protocol" and choose 'Set your default programs'.On Windows 7 there is a dialog with programs with associations listed in the left-hand pane, choose ChromeAt the bottom right is two options, select: "Choose defaults for this program"The dialog changes to show extensions and protocols that can be used by ChromeLook for NXM and see if the correct program is setOn a Windows 7 system this doesn't show up but 8.1 may have taken control of more protocols and this may be circumventing any changes in the 'Local State' file. Maybe! As i said I can't check it but the amount of posts on the net about 8.1 taking control of certain protocols leads me to think it might help. Of course it goes without saying that the 'Local State' edit MUST be done when Chrome is NOT ACTIVE. So if any have been trying to edit that file with Chrome open, shut it down and try again.

So if any have been trying to edit that file with Chrome open, shut it down and try again.Don't forget that in its default state chrome will have a bunch of background apps running when the main window closes. I do not know if they will interfere with anything, but it is a good idea to make sure they are closed also to avoid any problems with all of this. You will find it under settings, Show advanced settings, Continue running background apps when Google Chrome closes check box.
