    Hi there @nikkitimesthree  missed your prior question yesterday, and got busy..

    So how did you go copying the folders over? Or are you not sure of how.. various methods (and of course you can, they're just files afterall..)

     

    1: Create a zipped folder each for mods, tray, saves / saved games, screenshots, recorded videos (if you want them too.) 

    2: Transfer them via 1: attach them as a file and email yourself, 2: use a portable hard drive or usb. 

    3: Extract them into the correct place ie: exactly as they 'looked' in the old computer.

    There is also various apps to use to 'transfer files' I use Evernote a lot for that too (good for pix etc) also works from mobile to computer you can also invite other people to view documents etc and it also has a chat connected. 

    So use whatever method works best for you,

    Sasha

    nb: If your problem is now fixed, appreciate it if you marked one of my answers as the solution; for others also to follow when they have a similar problem
