not a big thing but nerved NMM always creates a folder ...Saved Games\Nexus Mod Manager resp. ...My Games\Nexus Mod Manager can't find it in registry to kill it, this folder is not in use, always empty (and I don't want that it is used because on wrong HDD and not there where NMM is.

another annoying thing is, that NMM always complains that I don't have the last Firefox when I click in NMM on link to here, and it does not open this site, But I don't want to update my current Firefox version to the new yesterday's update because that is sh*t. So NMM should look for the current installaiton and do not impose upgrade of other than NMM itself. (The ore, as I use the portable version of Firefox for several reasons). NMM may gve a hint, but not impose things that don't belong to NMM.

My Games\Nexus Mod Manager is where NMM stores tracelog files (the ones informing you about crash issues).

I never had it create a Saved Games\Nexus Mod Manager folder, so I don't know about that, I'll check in the code.

NMM doesn't ask you to update Firefox, NMM will open the default browser, if you set it to be Firefox then it'll open Firefox, it's Firefox that then decides to ask you to update.

why My Games\Nexus Mod Manager and nit the same where tracelog is ? For that you let the user choose the directory. I want to have all of a program central in one area, in opposite to windows default sh** My Games\Nexus Mod Manager as subfolder of games simply is wrong, because it is no game.

"Saved Games\Nexus Mod Manager" was my free translation, because I have the German words only, don't know what it is in English Windows. I have "F:\Meine Spiele\Nexus Mod Manager" while NMM is far away on other HDD 001aa2

You can change the path in the Settings menu, General tab.

The default is Documents\Nexus Mod Manager .
