Can't not open SMM3 in vps. (Dedicated Servers)
The error appears when I try to install SMM on a dedicated server in a vps. But if I install it on a personal computer with a normal game, there is no error.
I have installed the latest version of Satisfactory Mod Manager (v3.0). But when I open it, nothing happens. It just doesn't work, no errors, nothing.
I tried installing v2.9.3. After installation, SMM will appear and update automatically, after updating, it disappears and cannot be opened again like v3.0.
During the installation process, SMM also did not detect the dedicated server folder (...\Steamcmd\steamapps\common\SatisfactoryDedicatedServer) like when detecting the game folder.
Anyone having the same error and know how to fix it?

For the not starting issue, try this version of SMM https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PRuSA0hCex4fC0Z3U1TdetnX8JcEWszA/view?usp=sharing
But also, if you have access to the VPS through (S)FTP or network share (e.g
\\server\path\to\sf\server), you can manage that server from SMM on your PC, with the added benefit of mod versions being ensured to be compatible between the client and serverI'm trying SFTP but don't know where to find my username and password?
What are you normally using to access the files of the VPS?
I use Romote Desktop Connection
Remote Desktop Connection
Tried with VPS login username(ADMIN\Administrator and Administrator) and password but it still doesn't work
Remote Desktop is not (S)FTP so that won't work
You'd want to use the
\\server\path\to\sf\server format I mentioned earlier (in your case that would be \\103.188.243.23\<something>\Steamcmd\steamapps\common\SatisfactoryDedicatedServer)I don't understand this, do you have any tutorial links?
Try pasting
\\103.188.243.23 into the file explorer navbar and see what it lists thereThank you very much but I have to give up because I can't connect to Map Network Drive.
I have full control over my VPS and can drag and drop or copy and paste files and folders. But these connection protocols are too difficult for me plus the unknown errors are making me tired :Sadge:
Well, you can still try this SMM build on the server, which should fix the not starting issue
you can watching my video

Try fully removing webview2 using https://github.com/ShadowWhisperer/Remove-MS-Edge/raw/refs/heads/main/Remove-EdgeWeb.exe, then reinstall webview using the Evergreen Bootstrapper from https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/?form=MA13LH#download
