I am a premium member and successfully sign in to Nexus Forum and Nexus Mod websites. BUT, even though I can sign into those, I am not allowed to sign in to the Mod Manager itself. I went to Nexus forum, changed my password hoping that would also correct the situation, but no - not allowed to sign in. I recently returned from playing Witcher 3, using Mod Organizer, to Skyrim Special edition, where I have always enjoyed using Nexus Mod Manager. Does anyone have a possible solution? The Nexus Forum specifically states that it will broach NO questions concerning the Mod Manager. Who can I contact to correct the problem?

That glitch happens rarely and is maddening difficult to reproduce enough to make an attempt at a bug report, Simply closing NMM and restarting it will clear the issue and allow you to log in normally.

I have done that repeatedly, with no positive results, sadly.

Thank you for your response, by the way. :)

I can't be certain, but I think the mod sites and the forum have separate password data, so if you changed your password on the forum but not on the mod sites then that may be your disconnect. Someone correct me if I am wrong here.

Note that NMM cannot authenticate you with an email address as your username, you need to use your Nexus username when logging in.

With NMM 0.65.9, the login form will now enforce using a username (won't allow email). Hopefully that will resolve most login issues people are reporting.

Closing this issue.
