- Protect your python log and make it read only (make it blank, or write this: “Stay out of my s**t WG” if you give zero f**ks like me)
Whyphy they could do something for you modifying their game files… I have found that the best way to protect python is:
1. Back up your res mods directory to a temp folder outside of WOT
2. Delete the res mods directory
3, Delete python
4. Login to WOT with the empty res mods directory
5. Log out
6. Your new python will look like this…

* notice the line that says mods not found 
7. Set your permissions to python according to the How to Protect Python from this site
8. Restore the backup of your res mods folder back into the WOT directory.
9. Launch WOT and check python by dropping to desktop and clicking edit… If you did everything correctly it will look just like it did when you created the new file on step 4,5 and 6
10, Play.
If you really want to get sneaky once a day backup and delete res mods and restore permissions to write and launch the game once then restore your directory and the deny permissions… This way they won’t even be able to tell that you have the python file set to deny writes if they do snatch it.
