Perfect! I always thought the mod list was in the steam folder where the actual game was installed, so I got confused when I copied the entire steam folder which had all my skyrim data in it but the mod list didn't go with it. Since my old drive (where the game was originally installed) was C: but is now the F: drive, I found the mod list in F:games/nexus mod manager/skyrim/mods and just had to change nmm to look there instead and restart the program :)

I'm reinstalling Skyrim (along with windows and other games) onto a new SSD. I'm looking for a tutorial or troubleshooting guide on how to transfer the game and mod files with NMM. I thought it would be easy, but the game is CTD on startup and all the mods are gone from NMM list (even though the plug-ins are still listed). I thought all I had to do was copy/paste the skyrim folder from the old drive to the new one and setup Skyrim again in the brand new drive through Steam. edit: Ok verifying files and checking the install in steam, and disabling some NMM plugins fixed it. but im still looking at an empty mods list in NMM. How can I import the mods list downloaded with NMM in my previous installation? they all seem to be active in the game, but the NMM list is empty.
