ignore it. ignore all error messages the game gives u, 99% of the time they dont effect the game at all. just click yes and ok all the time til the messages stop

basically its just a paranoic safety system the game has :P

Yep, Switch is right, they're harmless, before the first patch for Morrowind came out I used to get them for every plug-in I loaded! It's just a safety precaution when it picks up a change ie: plug in.

True, but just to be safe, always back-up your savefile before using a new plugin, some can give trouble if your MW isn't all that compatible... <_<

While the message itself IS harmless, if you want to eliminate it, do the following:

Start the Construction Set and open your Data Files folder.

Select a Plug-in by double-clicking it's box so the little "X" shows there (you can only do ONE plug-in at a time, by the way).

Click on "Set as Active File" and load the files (this will take a minute).

Immediately go to the "File" menu and click on "Save".

If you have more than one plug-in that is generating this error, repeat the above steps for each.

Exit the Construction Set and start your game.

Voila... no more error message.
