Fatal Error!
If you are getting this error from the game this is not the fault of the manager. This means that you are using a mod that hasn't been updated for the most recent version of the game. The only solution is to remove it.Virus False PositivesIt can happen that your antivirus detects this program to be harmful. This is known to me but I can't do anything about it. It's known as a false positive, which means it falsely detects it.
Linux DisclaimerThis program is written with only Windows in mind!
It does not support other operating systems out of the box. It's not intended to be run on Linux and I will stop providing support/assistance/help to people trying to run it on such regardless of whether you're using Proton or Wine!
You can still try running it but do so at your own risk!
