"The thread tried to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access."

Hi. I've recently downloaded a mod for a game and now whenever I try to open a save file, it just suddenly closes the game. I checked the dump files and it said "The thread tried to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access." I've watched multiple tutorials online but all tell me to disable my antivirus and/or uninstall and re-install the application. Would that really be the correct way to fix this?

    I didn't receive a BSOD on my computer. The game crashed and created a .dmp file, which I then opened using Visual Studio and it told me that the save files were running into access denied errors at startup and were causing the game to crash. (Exception Code 0xC0000005).

    Can you post the dump file to Onedrive and post the link here?

    To know what exactly is causing the crashes, I need to analyze minidumps generated by crashes.

    Go to C:\Windows\Minidump

    Zip the contents of the folder corresponding to date and time of your BSOD

    Upload the content to Onedrive or any other file sharing site for me to locate the problem
