Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

You installed a logic mod that requires UE4SS (like Outfit Manager) and you did everything correctly, but when launching the game you get this error:



What you need to do is give yourself permission to the Jedi Survivor folder and add the missing files so the mod loader can write on them.


1 - Find your Jedi Survivor game folder
2 - Right click the folder and open Properties
3 - In the Security tab, click Advanced


4 - On the next window, click Add


5 - Click Select a principal
6 - Enter your windows user name
6.1 - Click Check Names, the name of your computer will appear before your user name.
6.2 - Click Ok



7 - Enable Modify (or Full Control) and "Only apply..." checkboxes and click Ok


8 - Enable the "Replace all child object..." checkbox.
9 - Click Apply and say Yes to the pop-up



10 - Download this zip file (found in the file tab of this mod page)
11 - Move the contents of the zip's Win64 folder to the game's /Jedi Survivor/SwGame/Binaries/Win64/ folder


12 - Launch the game

    K function is not working.
    Playing on EA; app is downloaded on C:\ and game is installed on an external drive. My problem occurs during Step 8. I have been added with full control of the folder (with subs and files), as well as the external as well. However, when applying the "Replace all child objects" checkbox and saying yes to the pop-up, the check box automatically is unapplied again.
    Following the steps for the EA process, under the game folder's General Properties, I uncheck the read-only box, click Apply, and then Okay. However, right after, to double-check it stuck, the "read-only" is rechecked again.

    Any thoughts? Thanks!

    I’m not getting an error code but “K” key isn’t doing anything. Not sure if it’s because I’m using a Steamdeck? I’ve tried a real keyboard and modified controls (binding “k” key). 

    is there a tutorial for Steamdeck support? Thank you and thanks for all the hard work. This is an amazing utility.

      Same for me. I’m also using the Steam Deck. K isn’t doing anything, not seeing any errors. Can we get a permissions tutorial for steam deck / Linux please!?

    If anyone is still facing the K not working issue even after following all instructions from above, then please do the below steps (Still advised to follow the the UE4SS Error first):

    What you need to do is Right click the Jedi Survivor folder, Properties > General section and untick the "Attributes: Read-Only" of the Jedi Survivor folder, apply and ok it, then Open the game and the K function will work correctly this time.

    The Read only tick will again be autoticked after closing the game once but the K function will work afterwords anyways.

    I've followed this guide to the letter, but I'm still getting the "tried opening file for writing" error.

      Same for me. Tried multiple times, reinstalled mods, deleted mods, nothing works.

      I am on the EA app, but apparently that shouldn't matter, some says.

    I get as far as the "replace child object" part but when I hit apply, every single file in the jedi suvivor folder pops up with access denied message.

      Having the same problem, I tried to to change all the files to allow it, but it seems something keeps undoing my changes.
