Did you make a new profile by chance?

[vuther316 10]

nope same profile as always

Running any mods? Other than that I would verify game integrity, but that's about all I can think of.

[vuther316 10]

yeah im running a bunch of mods.

Ok, I would disable them all for a while and see if the issue persists, if not then it's one of the mods.

Start the game as administrator. It could be that Arma 3 does not have writing permission in some cases.

thing is it only happens every month or so and i can't really disable all my mods for that long. also if i run as administrator i won't be able to use arma 3 sync which is how i run my mods.

I'm not too familiar with A3Sync, but have heard of it, but it doesn't make sense why you wouldn't be able to use it :confused:? Maybe make sure your running Steam, A3, A3Sync, and whatever other programs your using as administrator.

hmm possibly. the bright side of this is that my load outs are very organized now
