### There're more than one MM Watch Dog on this KSP instalment!
11+
12+
Well, somehow you managed to have installed more than one copy of this tool itself!
13+
14+
Check `GameData/` for DLLs with the name "ModuleManagerWatchDog" on it and delete all of them - but the newest one.
15+
16+
### "There's no Module Manager on this KSP instalment!"
17+
18+
Well, you need to install Module Manager! :) See the "How-To" below.
19+
20+
Check `GameData/` for DLLs with the name "ModuleManager" on it and delete all of them - but the newest one.
21+
22+
### "There're more than one Module Manager on this KSP instalment!"
23+
24+
Unfortunately, from KSP 1.8.0 and above a fatal bug is affecting Module Manager when mode then one MM dll is installed on your system, what renders Module Manager choosing to use the **oldest** version to be used. This caused some problems to TweakScale at least one.
25+
26+
There's no other solution available but to **DELETE** all redundant copies of Module Manager, leaving only one on the GameData.
27+
28+
This was diagnosed on [TweakScale's thread](https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/179030-ksp-141-tweakscale-under-lisias-management-24314-2020-0519/&do=findComment&comment=3797945).

## How-To install Module Manager
31+
32+
You have two options, each one with advantages and drawbacks.
33+
34+
### Option I : Module Manager /L Experimental
35+
36+
This is my personal fork of Module Manager, aiming to fix some non functional bugs while keeping compatibility with the original Module Manager.
37+
38+
* Advantages
39+
+ Slightly faster, mainly on systems with less memory
40+
+ Way better logging
41+
- But still lacking a thing or two.
42+
+ Some fix from small annoyances or bugs, as long it doesn't breaks compatibility with the upstream.
43+
+ It works on every KSP Version from 1.4.x to the latest
44+
- KSP 1.3.1 and 1.2.2 are work in progress, to be released soon.
45+
* Disadvantages
46+
+ It's not supported by most of the Add'On authors
47+
- To tell you the true, I'm the only one supporting this stunt. :)
48+
+ Some Add'On authors may dismiss your bug reports by using a non "official" Module Manager.
49+
+ It has dependencies.
50+
51+
If you are willing to risk your SAS, you can downloaded it from my github:
52+
53+
* [Module Manager /L Experimental](https://github.com/net-lisias-ksp/ModuleManager/releases)
54+
* Dependencies
55+
+ [KSPe and KSP API Extensions](https://github.com/net-lisias-ksp/KSPAPIExtensions).
56+
57+
### Option II : Official Module Manager
58+
59+
Obviously, you can use the Official Module Manager from Forum.
60+
61+
* Advantages
62+
+ Lower risk of being your reports rejected by using non Official versions of something
63+
* Disavantages
64+
+ Less conveniency on diagnosing problems using the logs
65+
+ Some annoying misfeatures
66+
+ You need to cope with this type of [bad behaviour](https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/50533-18x-19x-module-manager-413-november-30th-2019-right-to-ludicrous-speed/&do=findComment&comment=3742972). :(
