<p>Try deleting the <code>.git</code> folders in <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\LOOT\&lt;game folder&gt;\</code> and <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\LOOT\prelude\</code>. If you can't see any <code>.git</code> folders, make sure that you can <a href="https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/view-hidden-files-and-folders-in-windows-97fbc472-c603-9d90-91d0-1166d1d9f4b5">view hidden files and folders</a>.</p>

<p>If that doesn't work, make sure any firewalls or security software you have installed aren't stopping LOOT from reaching the online masterlist.</p>
<p>If LOOT still can't update its masterlist, you can update manually by downloading <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/loot/prelude/v0.17/prelude.yaml">this file</a> and placing it in <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\LOOT\prelude\</code>. Then, download the masterlist for your game from <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/loot/game/v0.17/masterlist.yaml">this location</a> and place it in <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\LOOT\&lt;game folder&gt;\</code>. Depending on your game, replace <code>game</code> within the URL with <code>morrowind</code>, <code>oblivion</code>, <code>skyrim</code>, <code>skyrimse</code>, <code>skyrimvr</code>, <code>fallout3</code>, <code>falloutnv</code>, <code>fallout4</code>, <code>fallout4vr</code> or <code>enderal</code>, and <code>&lt;game folder&gt;</code> within the folder path with <code>Morrowind</code>, <code>Oblivion</code>, <code>Skyrim</code>, <code>Skyrim Special Edition</code>, <code>Skyrim VR</code>, <code>Fallout3</code>, <code>FalloutNV</code>, <code>Fallout4</code>, <code>Fallout4VR</code>, <code>Nehrim</code>, <code>Enderal</code> or <code>Enderal Special Edition</code>. Note that Oblivion and Nehrim share the <code>oblivion</code> masterlist and Enderal and Enderal Special Edition share the <code>enderal</code> masterlist.</p>
<p>If LOOT still can't update its masterlist, it's likely due to connectivity issues that we won't be able to resolve. You can update it manually by downloading <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/loot/prelude/v0.17/prelude.yaml">this file</a> and placing it in <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\LOOT\prelude\</code>. Then, download the masterlist for your game from <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/loot/game/v0.17/masterlist.yaml">this location</a> and place it in <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\LOOT\games\&lt;game folder&gt;\</code>. Depending on your game, replace <code>game</code> within the URL with <code>morrowind</code>, <code>oblivion</code>, <code>skyrim</code>, <code>skyrimse</code>, <code>skyrimvr</code>, <code>fallout3</code>, <code>falloutnv</code>, <code>fallout4</code>, <code>fallout4vr</code> or <code>enderal</code>, and <code>&lt;game folder&gt;</code> within the folder path with <code>Morrowind</code>, <code>Oblivion</code>, <code>Skyrim</code>, <code>Skyrim Special Edition</code>, <code>Skyrim VR</code>, <code>Fallout3</code>, <code>FalloutNV</code>, <code>Fallout4</code>, <code>Fallout4VR</code>, <code>Nehrim</code>, <code>Enderal</code> or <code>Enderal Special Edition</code>. Note that Oblivion and Nehrim share the <code>oblivion</code> masterlist and Enderal and Enderal Special Edition share the <code>enderal</code> masterlist. Also note that you'll want to disable the "Update masterlist before sorting" option in LOOT's settings until your connectivity issues have been resolved.</p>
