I show you i am French then i use VASSAL in French i have refresh in " tools " or you talk about one other function ?
VASSAL module description pbm - 2

Can you show what location on your hard drive where the module is currently stored? Mostly want to make sure the module isn’t being kept in C:\Program Files or something like that where saving/writing to the file could be getting prevented by Windows.

He is in C:\Users\Utilisateur\Pictures

I have same problem with one other module in C:\Users\Utilisateur\Pictures as this one a copy of one other more fast to do…

But i am surprised to change a title as it is complicated !

It shouldn’t be. But you can easily test if the current location of the module is a problem. Move the module to somewhere else (for example, your Desktop). Then try the edit again.

The Pictures folder seems like a very strange place to keep VASSAL modules. It could easily be getting indexed by some application or utility running in the background, thus the module file is getting locked and prevents you from editing it.

Thank you for help and advising me :slightly_smiling_face:

" Move the module to somewhere else (for example, your Desktop) " done but still no possible to change description remains always the former !

If i install VASSAL and reinstall can to be a solution ?

Reinstalling Vassal is almost never the solution if Vassal runs.

Where are you trying to edit the module description? Can you post a screenshot of that?
