Today suddenly, Minion doesn't work

DreamyLu · April 5

Hello All

Since today, Minion doesn't work for me anymore. At first, when I opened it, it told me that it can't reach internet. Strange...

First, based on what I found on the internet, I added the link to the exclusions by my internet protection. No change.

Then, I uninstall it and re-install it new, with the hope that it could help. It went worse: Minion doesn't detect the existing addons on my computer, even when I give him the folder.

What is happening? Anyone could help?

Thanks in advance
Lu .-

Sorry for double posting: just to say, I have just found out the other thread and will swap to it. Mods can close my post. Sorry that I didn't see it before.

im not sure why it wouldnt detect anything, when you uninstalled you could have chosen to not remove the config files, so you wouldnt have to reconfigure anything for minion once you reinstalled the updated version

if you did uninstall everything, including your configurations, then yes you would have to make it re-point to the addon folder and everything to see what you had

Same problem here, seems to be a problem with Minion, not yours

Also, there is a thread here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/655428/if-unable-to-connect-via-minion-starting-03-30-2024-read-linked-forum-thread

Where config files of minion are stored so I can backup? Does anyone know path? I wanna try uninstall and install new version but do not want to set up minion settings again.

No need for set up settings:
1. Deinstall:
Are you sure you want to completety remove Minion and all of its components? YES
Do you want to delete the minion configuration directory? NO
Minion was successfully removed from your computer.

2. Download Minion from https://minion.mmoui.com/?download

3. Start Minion3.0.12.exe
When the Setup asks
The folder ( e.g. C:\Users\<your user>\AppData\Local\Minion)
already exists, Would you like to install to that folder anyway? YES
and finish the installation
Launch Minion and all is ok
