Is the mod folder in the Roaming/Yuzu ? What's your mod manager app version ? Have you tried the 2 debug buttons at 0.9.2 ?

I have a similar bug, but I can add that after clearing the cache, the error changes to "path not allowed on the configured scope", before going back to the could not fetch mods error again. I also tried the other debug option, and that one does nothing.

My version of the app is the latest one, 0.9.6.

I don't know if it's related or not, but might as well point out that the version on banana is still the 0.5, but the built in update did not work either, it launched a console, restarted the app, only to ask me if I wanted to install the update again.

Can you share your path that's not allowed on the configured scope please ? This is a known bug that I can't replicate while I don't have a windows

The path is "G:\Games\Yuzu EA"

[vasilvestre]

The path is "G:\Games\Yuzu EA"

So normally, when you launch the app and choose Yuzu, the app ask you for Yuzu path that's right ?

[Sylvaerin]

I have to click the text asking for the path after choosing yuzu, but I noticed that it gives me the could not fetch error before I do.

[vasilvestre]

Ok maybe I have a workflow issue here but you still can choose a directory ? The directory to select is the Yuzu folder that contains a directory "Mod"

[Sylvaerin]

I can, but it doesn't work nonetheless, I also tried to put the .exe inside the same folder.

I will try to reproduce this in 2 days when I have a windows

[Sylvaerin]

Ok, I hope you'll find a fix :)

[Sylvaerin]

Quick update: I tried the new release, still not working, and now the text to choose the folder is gone.

Yes, please use the debug button to remove your inner configuration. The new system isn't compatible with the previous one for a file :)

[Sylvaerin]

That fixed that issue, but the underlying one is still there, I hope you'll find something!

I've sent a video, the other issue is quite similar to this one. You are doing to same things?

[Sylvaerin]

So, I started spamming the two buttons, and at some point it started working, for some reason lol, thanks!

[vasilvestre]

Nice ! I've discovered a new way to handle the configuration still, this will make the whole app more stable. I keep learning :) Happy that it works !
