Well first, check your Trash/Recycling Bin on your computer to see if it's still there. Make sure whenever CC is installed you have "Enable Custom Content And Mods" checked, and some CC even requires "Enable Script Mods" to be checked too. If your mods folder isn't in the Trash/Recycling Bin, and you have all of the CC you want to put back in there, just go into the Sims 4 directory where you'd normally put CC, and create a folder and name it "Mods" (With the capital "M") and then put your items in there. I hope I was clear enough, and I hope you get your problem solved! Cheers!
what if just making a new folder doesn't work?

Hi @simmercutie1,
Creating the folder is not enough as you need a file resource.cfg inside your folder for mods to work.
If it's missing, the Mods folder and resource file will be regenerated by the game the next time you open your game. Once the game has created the Mods folder and the resource file inside it, you can install your games as usual.

I also deleted my mods file to regenerate since resource.cfg was corrupted and not letting my CC work. I opened my game, played for a bit and quit but the mods file had not regenerated. Please help me ☹️. Thanks
You can check where the game saves your files by looking in your Game Options - Screenshot settings.
Can you please copy the path above and paste it in an answer here?
