GWX trouble AGAIN

Cool. Now, if you have more issues, having SH3 Steam in the "Program Files (x86)" directory - er, folder, can cause troubles with mod activations also, since Windows will "protect" your "Program Files (x86)" folder from "unauthorized" editing, which is what JSGME does, since it does not ask Windows for permission to edit the files. SH3 and JSGME are both from the days of Windows XP, before MS decided to frustrate game users who like to mod... Over in the FotRSU thread, I made this post for a fellow with Steam:

which has this picture in it of my Steam app on my computer, NOT on the web. You still have to log-in, but you change the install folder like this.

That said, if it works, don't break it by trying to "fix" it... ~BUT~ if you notice further issues, it could well be the install folder that you are currently using.

Edit: The Steam Support Site method has the manual way also...
