I was batch testing my mods and this last time I loaded it up and noticed the loading screen was base game (i usually have a mod for this) then the game CRASHED and when i went to the mods folder ALL MY MODS ARE GONE..DISSAPEARED. I'm a windows 11 user but before you ask..no I DONT have my onedrive activated/logged in/ turned on. ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED! I had alot of mods :(

  • chelsugar  Try searching your computer.  Open a File Explorer window, click This PC in the left panel, and try one of these search terms:

    *.ts4script
    *.package

    Let me know whether you find any files, and if so, where.  A more thorough (and free, and reliable) search tool is Everything, from VoidTools, so you may want to try that if Windows search isn't finding anything or is taking too long to complete.

    I understand you're not using OneDrive, but just in case it's relevant, I'd like to point out that OneDrive can reactivate after a Windows feature update, so please make absolutely sure it's still not running.

    Thanks! I actually found the missing folder in the recycling bin. Feel like an idiot I didn't think to look there first. The game obviously biffed it there! But my household's house was missing CC even though it was installed/in the mods folder? Very strange, plus my game keeps freezing on the loading screen to go to maps which forces me to crash/quit the game.

  • chelsugar  If you saved with the custom content not present, it would be missing from your saves even after you added back the files.  You can try restoring a backup copy of the save:

    Before doing so, please make sure you cc is in fact loading in-game and can be used as normal.

    For the freezing, does it happen all the time, or all the time in a specific context, or is it more random?  Does it happen in a new save with your Mods folder removed?
