    Never ever install that much CC at a time it makes it impossible for you to test properly. Remove all and delete the file localthumbcache.package.

    Divide the CC up in batches of say 10 and install one batch and check that everything works. Repeat until you have tested all. Notice that having this much CC may cause your game to run slow or not at all depending on your computer and the particular CC. While testing if something doesn't show up go back to the site where you got it and read the instructions carefully.

Device: HP laptop

My mods still won’t show up in game, i was advised to take it slow and that doing so it worked for like 1 minute than went right back to not working anymore. There is one thing: I downloaded something from a site and after the mod finished downloading the file said “Virus detected” I didn’t know what that was supposed to be telling me but I reset my laptop asap anyways. Once turned back on it ran smoothly like nothing ever happened. Other than that I seriously don’t have a clue what I could be doing wrong. 🤔

The virus message that you got came from your antivirus and means that what you thought was a piece of CC was in fact an executable file containing a virus. Luckily your antivirus caught it. If you have more files from the same site you should delete them to be sure you don't get a virus.

As I wrote earlier when a piece of CC does not show up in game go back to the site you got it from and read the instructions carefully including how to extract it is it came as a packed file (7z, zip or rar).
