I created it manually, because it was showing this same message and no matter where I put installer it always shows this same message.
I’m guessing it’s because Windows 11, but it would’ve been silly since the game works on W11.
So the rat sits somewhere else and I hope @Atampy26 will be able to help to eliminate it
So, the installer had the exact same error, even when the “Simple Mod Framework” folder wasn’t present? That’s really strange.
I don’t know what exactly the installer does, apart from finding the Hitman folder and putting SMF in the correct location. But you could try to download SMF directly (not the installer) and extract/copy all the files into the mentioned “Simple Mod Framework” folder. Maybe that works, but not guarantees.

sir, please reply and help me…
There’s nothing I can properly do about this. The error is non-specific and I’m still not convinced your version of the framework is the actual release.
Sir I am using Nexusmods official Simple Mod Framework latest version…
Myself, having had many ‘Deploy Unsuccessful’ events in the past I would suggest this…
Have all your mod zip files in another folder/directory as a back up (so you don’t have to download them again).
Delete everything related to SMF.
Why do I say that? Because even if I did update SMF - something, somewhere was still making me have deployment failures.
It wasn’t until I deleted everything (yes, without backing up my mod zip files 
) then downloaded and reinstalled a new/fresh SMF file did I stop having issues.
Well, there seems to be only one mod that gives me deployment failures… But once I remove that it will work again. ‘Community Updates’ I think…
I also thought it was something I fudged up with Freelancer Variations. There are a couple things you have to get for that to work. More than likely I put them in the wrong folder locations or whatever. But once I cleaned everything out and tried it again that too was working.

Hey everyone,
I’m new here, so forgive me if this post is a bit of a mouthful—I got a little carried away! 
I recently saw a contract that seemed like it had been modded, but I believe it was created within the game’s normal limitations. It had custom NPC names, modified objectives, a restricted loadout, and a unique storyline. I’d love to do something similar, but I’m not sure where to start. Expand the customization options for contracts. Like more flexibility in defining the eliminations and objectives within contracts. Specific weapons and elimination methods.
For example, I recently made a contract in Colorado where the target was a famous rapper (an NPC that happened to resemble one), and I wanted the mission to include a task where you hack into a computer to steal his unreleased music. Currently, the only interaction with the computer is through blending in, but with a mod, it would be fantastic to convert that into a full hacking objective with custom text explaining the context in the objective menu.
Would be cool if possible to create contracts that use map-specific items for kills, like the wood chipper in Miami or the poisoned house in Whittleton Creek. Like any map with a ventilation system. Including objectives like pacifying NPCs, retrieving certain items with a custom backstory (e.g., hacking a laptop to steal secret files).
I’ve also seen some creative contracts—like a “White Rabbit” mission in Berlin where custom NPCs were placed around the map—and I’m wondering how I could replicate something like that. Also, I’m curious if there’s any way to integrate elusive target features, like making a target invisible on the map, into contracts.
Anyway, if anyone can show me how to pull this off or if there’s a mod that helps, I’d really appreciate it! My bad for the long post—I’ll try to keep it shorter next time (no promises!).
Thanks in advance!
