I f***ed up

[Badplayor0]

So I was trying to install mods for skyrim and then wanted to uninstall them all because i f*#@ed something up because im dumb as hell this will come back shortly. So as the absolute genuis i am i delete the files for vortex expecting something to happen and removed the mods but now i realised i f*#@ed up pretty bad so is there any way for me to fix this s#*!? Let me say i had installed 7 mods got rid of all them not by normal means because i was downloading skse and it f*#@ed everything up and now im stuck in this shithole.

Also you will need to dumb it down a few levels because im too stupid to understand alot of what ive read.

Your problem is that you deleted the mods without PURGING them first.

Now Vortex still thinks you still have those mods installed.

You are only dealing with seven mods; worst case, remove and reinstall Vortex and your game.

 

Short of that, I would try:

1) Bring up Vortex and Purge your mods

2) Clean up your game directory, deleting everything not installed by Bethesda. Deleting the Data directory is a good start.

3) Validate your game using Steam. That will fix anything you deleted by mistake.

4) - Important - on each of your mods, use the Reinstall dropdown. Your mods in the staging directory are damaged, and need to be reinstalled from the archives.

5) Enable and Deploy them.

 

Good luck - and be glad you are not dealing with 300 mods - yet.
