Cant Activate Mod - Euripides - 11-13-2011

Hi I am in desperate need for help please.
I recently have moved from XP to Win 7 64 bit and I can not activate the mod.
I have a new install of the game and FLMM 1.31.
I keep getting an error denying access to Bin.dl.mods.
I managed to get another mod working by running at as admin however there is no option to do that on 485 mod.
I am worrying that my chars will disapear soon.
Any ideas would be welcome.

1. Run FLMM as Admin...
2. If that dosnt work.. Make a clean install of FL and repeat step 1.
3. If working then have fun or else, go back to step 1

I was having that problem, too, when I was new here.

Run as FLMM or FL Account Manager as Admin, start game from there.

Try changing the install directory to your desktop instead of program files.

' Wrote:Install Freelancer onto the desktop.

Start the Freelancer setup/installer program. Select "Install" not "Express Install"

Change the directory to install into, to be a directory named Freelancer on the desktop. On my computer this means the path to Freelancer is C:\Users\Matt\Desktop\Freelancer. It is not C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer and it is not C:\Users\Matt\Desktop\

When you have done this, the screen should look like the following. The important thing to note is that the installation path ends with the directory name "Freelancer".

Install FLMM 1.31 onto the desktop.

Start the Freelancer Mod Manager setup/installer program.

Change the directory to install into, to be a directory named Freelancer Mod Manager on the desktop. On my computer the path for this is C:\Users\Matt\Desktop\Freelancer Mod Manager
