Says I don't own fallout 3 but I do

[protectorcrimson]

HI I got the GOTY edition of F3 on Steam and I did the installation. I did the installation and it gave me a bsa and esp.  But I realized some of the files where read only so I turned those off and re did it.  Then the patcher says it cannot patch the f3 esm and says it only works on legitamate copies of the game which I own. The installation was aborted.  Whats going on?

Read the sticky posts and try again.

Well I do say which version I have and explained the process I went through.  I have the steam GOTY edition and I used the installer.  Which worked.  Then I realized I had files read only so in the fo3 folder I set it not to be read only.  Then I used the installer again.  At the end of the process it said It could not patch FO3 esm and it only works on legitmate copies of fo3.  Which I have! I am asking is there a common bug then and what is going on?
