Hey, I've been struggling to install Everest ever since I upgraded my PC. I have been trying to reinstall Everest in order to run all the mods I was using previously, but for some reason the installer keeps crashing and all I'm left with is the following error log. I've looked through it and since I'm pretty clueless when it comes to this area of things, I decided to look for help here. Hope to hear back from someone! As I haven't been able to find a working solution.

As of the Everest Core update, Everest tries to create symlinks in order to share these two folders between the vanilla and modded installs of the game:

  • Saves, to sync save data between vanilla and modded
  • Content, to avoid making a duplicate of all the game assets and save about 1 GB of storage space
    However, creating a symlink requires admin privileges on Windows. Installing Everest will still work if you choose not to give admin privileges, but you won't get the benefits listed above.

Creating the symlink can also fail on external drives that use non-NTFS filesystems (such as some flash drives). Installing Everest 4482 or later will still work on these filesystems, but data will not be shared between vanilla and modded. If this is an issue, moving your Celeste install to the C drive should fix it.
