Hi @mytrion55
that is normal. As you renamed your folder, the game created a fresh one in it's place and all the content is no longer in the game.
Your content is not lost, it's all in the renamed folder still.
What you need to do now is finding out if the game works on a fresh folder. If it does, you can start copying files back from the renamed folder to the newly created one.
Do it in this order and test after each folder.
- Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
- Tray Folder
- Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
- Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
- Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
- Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)
The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
