so i was having some issues updating everest in game, it asked me for .net 7 so i installed it and it still wouldnt work, tried to do it via olympus, said something about miniinstaller k1ll1ng itself, tried to uninstall everest and install it again, same with olympus and with celeste, nothing works, also used the old everest installer, log file attached, finally tried changing the game from my exfat drive to my main NTFS drive and now it works, this is a temporary solution because i like to have my games on the exfat drive, any suggestions?
#everest only installs if celeste is on C/NTFS drive

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 moddedContent, 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.
tl;dr use a version 4482 or later
wow, that was fast, if i open olympus as admin will sync work?
