Eset blocking my Starfield mod. How to create exception?

[davidm71 0]

Hi,

Eset is blocking my Starfield mod from working and only fix I have is to disable protection. I tried creating exclusions to the path of the main install folder but not sure if it translates all way down to sub folders or is there an easy way to get Eset not to block my mod?

 

Thanks

Just what Eset features did you disable? Hopefully, not all of Eset. If you temporarily pause the Eset firewall, does the issue not occur?

Its just like I said at the start. Eset blocks the mod from working. Want to create an exception. Thanks.

Assumed is it is the Eset firewall that is blocking the Starfield mod from establishing network connectivity.

Start the mod. Then open Eset GUI and navigate to Network Protection section. Under the "Resolved blocked communication" area, it should show a non-zero blocked communication count. Mouse click on Resolved blocked communication and it will show all connections blocked by the firewall. You can then unblock the activity and have Eset create a firewall rule for it.

Is it a file that is detected and cleaned? Could you provide the appropriate record related to the issue from ESET's logs?

Well I think I solved the problem. I went to logs and found the log for the Eset blockage and right clicked and selected created exception and now it works. I also submitted it as a false positive file to Eset directly.

 

Thanks
