Trouble with mods for games

Thank you for your reply,

It is a long shot but while you suspect it is a firewall-related issue, please refer to this link to guide you on how you can enable access through the firewall

If this does not work, I suggest reinstalling the game and mods again, I'm not much of a gamer right now but back then when I used to play games and install mods sometimes I get these issues too so the best solution was to reinstall everything step by step, before that I make sure to uninstall everything and delete all files related to the games or mods.

Note some mods need a basic version of mods to function, it is like an update to the mods so to speak

 

Getting a crash in a folder containing .mod files (the folder is called mod)

Windows 10 only

When i try to open a specific folder in documents (specifically /paradox interactive/stellaris/mod)

File explorer crashes every time

I saw somewhere certain windows upgrades might cause the issue , so i tried removing this upgrades

I later noticed someone mentioned a newer upgrade fixes the issue so i used that upgrade too

Nothing solves the crash

Note that if i navigate to the folder through CMD i can open the files and folder without issue

its the specific folder containing .mod files that keeps crashing

Any idea if there is a proper solution for this issue ?

 

Problem with .mod files on Windows 10

The article you suggest states that .MOD will work with various versions of Windows OS, but Windows 10 is not one of them. All other posts I can find has Microsoft suggesting I go find a third party (unverified) to download CODEC files to try and play my
home videos with warnings and disclaimers that it may break my system or make it unstable.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Attempt to play a .MOD video file in Windows 10

2. Using Windows Live Movie Maker or Windows Media Player (does not seem to matter what version)

3. Immediate message that the 'program has stopped working and windows will notify me if a solution is found'.

If windows cannot fix this, then please suggest your top competitor that can.

Regretfully,

James
