BOSS....Why u no work?

Post » Mon Jul 16, 2012 7:04 pm

Ever. Seriously. How do you get this infernal program to work? It says Skyrim is "Not detected" and "There is no internet connection"; I've never gotten this stupid program to work. I install it to the default location as I've got FO:3, FO: NV and Skyrim currently installed. It sees NV and FO3 but not Skyrim.

Anyone have any idea?

Here's an idea: RTFM before you mouth off about my hard work.

Boss has always worked fine for me. Can't see the problem. Download installer, set it up. Use it.

Mouth off? It's not working. I've tried everything in the manual. It's fine. Don't help. I'll uninstall it.

You're doing something wrong and blaming it on a program that "works" for countless of users and has hundreds of man-hours put into it. How about you help us help you by describing your process step by step? Take us from download -> the problem and most likely someone will notice the mistake you are making.

When I am encountering errors in (or otherwise having trouble with installation or use of) any mod or utility I usually find an approach something along the lines of: "Your mod/utility looks great, but I can't get it to work, I've read the readme/manual and I can't find what I have done wrong, I'd be extremely grateful if someone could assist me to get it working" (followed by description of my installation process + at which point it goes wrong + any error messages) is the best way of getting useful assistance from people who have gone out of their way to make something for the game for which they have neither earned wages, nor received any compensation for the time and effort spent doing it, besides the warm glow of satisfaction of knowing that they have provided something useful to a large number of users.

Third result for boss won't detect Skyrim on google.

I had this problem before, and I think that fixed it. It was awhile ago though, so YMMV.
