Or you just go into Program Files, right-click on the "Electronic Arts" folder, go to Properties/Security. There you click "Edit", highlight your actual account and set a check mark at "full control" . In case your actual account isn't in the list, you'd have to use the ADD button first. -le Title: Re: where do my downloads go? nothing in mods>packages Post by: Marhis on 2009 July 18, 15:48:30 If so, tell us where so we know what place to carpet-bomb back into the stone age. I object: they would still do the same engraving the rocks. I would suggest Precambrian; IIRC bacteria don't have opposable thumbs. |
