Same - and same for every version of the steam install ive had since ~feb 2023.

It was there before that when i first played the game though - but NEVER on the GOG version.

I am completely and utterly confused. Mine is the GoG version, freshly installed for London.

Maybe it's some weird interaction between the GoG version and the Steam version sharing config files / caches?

like i said, its been out of the steam version of the launcher since feb '23 at least and never has been on the gog version afaik. id bet more on the possibility of some mod you have reintroducing it maybe?
ive seen you own it here so i know you're not running a pirated version.

Edit: can say that it was never on the launcher with certainty on the gog version as i never did mod it - save for FO:L this last week..

Completely fresh install via Galaxy, no mods other than London, and later Buffout added per other instructions here. That options was available before Buffout was installed. It was one of the first things I changed after seeing other people doing it.

weird. maybe its out of the EU regional version or only in the galaxy version then (i dont use galaxy)?!

Edit: also i just remembered having to try some file editing months ago with base FO4 to try to turn it off and it already was (when i couldnt find it in the launcher).
