Download from Nexus not working

[Vertrixx]

The problem:

Clicking the mod manager download for mods on Nexus doesn't download the mod in MO2.

To Reproduce:

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Have MO2 open.
2. Click 'Mod Manager Download' on a mod on the Nexus.
3. Mod doesn't download.

Environment:

• Mod Organizer Version that exhibits the issue: 2.5.2
• Last Mod Organizer Version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable): 2.5.0 (a month or so ago)
• Desktop OS/version used to run Mod Organizer: Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC, 22H2, 19044.5487

Details:

When trying to download a mod from Nexus through the Mod Manager Download, the download gets stuck on pending and I receive an error message: [2025-02-19 12:17:34.735 W] Aborting download: Either you clicked on a premium-only link and your account is not premium, or the download link was generated by a different account than the one stored in Mod Organizer.

Both are shown in screenshots below.

This issue was not present in the previous version of MO2 I used a month or so ago: 2.5.0. However, after updating MO2 I started encountering this issue today. I have troubleshooted practically everything I can think of for this issue:

• I have tried with multiple Nexus accounts
• I have tried by manually entering my API key
• I have tried to launch MO2 as admin
• I have tried linking to Nexus accounts through different browser profiles without extensions
• I have tried after restarting my PC
• I have tried manually changing nxm links to work with MO2 via nxmhandler.exe and changing the associated link in Firefox

The only MO logs I have are the ones below.

Apologies if I've formatted wrong or attached files incorrectly.

I was having the same issue and when I looked through the Mod Organizer 2 Discord I saw a user mention that disabling the "Nexus Download Fix" script used to skip the selection of the slow download/premium download fixed the issue. Just tried it on my machine, since I was also using that script in Tampermonkey, and that fixed the issue for me

Wow, I can't believe that actually fixed it. What a strange thing to have stopped the downloads from working. I didn't even know I had a script like that in Tampermonkey, but I just disabled Tampermonkey and it made it work. What's even weirder is that it didn't work when I tried it in a new profile with no extensions, so that's even more baffling haha.

Thank you very much, @okkibro . I really appreciate this, it works as intended now :D
