Module Export not working

[Sir Blackthorn]

I tried to make some minor updates to one of modules and discovered that the Export button on the Module Export panel has stopped working. The button indicates being pressed, but the typical message in chat stating export succeeded never appears. I have already tried to export a different module with the same issue. Rebooting the computer and moving the exported .mod file did not solve the problem.

Running on a Windows 10 computer and ruleset is 5E with only standard 5E modules loaded.

Welcome to the FG forums!

From the console.log file (thanks for including the logs):

[10/4/2021 10:20:27 AM] RULESET: Dungeons and Dragons (5E) ruleset (v2021-07-06) for Fantasy Grounds
Copyright 2021 Smiteworks USA, LLC
[10/4/2021 10:20:27 AM] RULESET: Core RPG ruleset (v2021-07-06) for Fantasy Grounds

This shows that you're running ruleset versions that are 8 months old.

Check in your <FG app data>\rulesets directory* for directories called CoreRPG and 5E - these will be older rulesets you've unzipped at some point and take priority over the CoreRPG.pak and 5E.pak ruleset files. If you have those folders, delete them and try loading FG again. If you don't have directories of those names, then delete CoreRPG.pak and 5E.pak and re-run an update.

* To get to <FG app data> click the folder icon on the top left of the main FG launch screen.

Thank you, deleting those 2 files and updating fixed the issue. Any idea how the files in that folder stopped updating?

No, we've heard of it from time to time; but it's usually very rare.

I know at least in one situation, the files had been marked as read only in the file properties which prevented applications from updating. Perhaps it happened during a time when you were copying or moving files in the past?
