Error: problem activating 'Crossfire Mod 1.70 Client Edition'
Error: SHCopyFile failed ('C:\Program\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\Data\Missions\M01A\m01a_01.thn.flmmbak' to 'C:\Program\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\Data\Missions\M01A\flmmbakm01a_01.thn')

can't activate the mod, and i suck at modding. so i dunno what to do. it worked perfect before i deactivated it. it said ''0 files restored 2 files deleted'' when i restored the backups because it had problems deactivating.

Since you're new here you're probably wondering what clean install means.

Clean means too
Delete your Freelancer folder located at
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Freelancer
Then insert the Freelancer CD and install Freelancer

If you are going to play the Crossfire Mod you should delete or move any previous saved games because they will cause Freelancer to crash when you try to play with the Crossfire Mod activated.
Your saved games are located at
C:\Documents and Settings\your name\My Documents\My Games\Freelancer\Accts
Both of the Singleplayer and Multiplayer folders are in the Accts folder...
Move those files to another folder or delete them.
You have to start a new game.
If you're going to play online the characters (games) are saved server side.
