I'm playing on an xbox. Has anybody seen this error massage in starfield watchtower mod? After uninstalling and attempting to reinstall, now I get this message: Lacking permissions to write to folder of download. Operation canceled. I was having issues with watchtower mod after a NG+. The stars have eyes mission. My Star dock was on lock down. Torin told me to talk to Harper, Harper tells me she busy, I should talk to Torin. It appears the stars have eyes mission is bugged. Mod will not reinstall?!

Has anybody seen this before?!

This question has come up elsewhere and seems to be an overall Creations bug, not specific to Watchtower.

Here's a previous response from @twolargepepperoni :

This is a known Creation store bug, and the solution is as follows:

1. Quit Starfield entirely (either to desktop for PC, or dashboard for xbox).
2. Re-enter the store.
3. Hit the download button for the affected Creation.

It should now work.

There is a second, seperate bug involving upgrading - info can be found here.

Bethesda are aware of both issues.
