lllllblader Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I had to install a new HD on my computer because my old one was out of space for my games, but i forgot to backup the skyrim mods i had. Is there any way to put them back?When i go to the Mods section of NMM, all of my mods are still there, and they appear to be installed, but they really aren't. Can someone help me? I had over 150 mods and it would be pretty hard to reinstall them all by hand. I uploaded some pictures to show the situation: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrathofdragon Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 try clicking the version link that will direct you to the download page, and you can download them again.you could just write down the mod names, re-install the NMM and get the mods again...

lllllblader Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) But is there any way to automatically do that or is it only by hand? It's gonna take a while by hand... it's so many mods!! Edited September 24, 2013 by lllllblader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonwulf Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 If the mods are showing up in NMM, they should be in your ...\Data folder. Did you try deactivating them then reactivating them? I don't think you need to re-download them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lllllblader Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 Yes, i tried reactivating them. And as I stated in the first post, I don't have the data folder with the mods anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vlaka Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 if you've downloaded them via NMM they will be in the folder NMM uses for mod downloads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhowington Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 NMM should have been installed in a Games folder on the C: od D: drive of your choice. If you still have the old drive you can simply copy the whole folder to the new drive or reinstall NMM and copy the contents of the Nexus Mod Manager folder on your old drive to the new drive and reinstall those mods in the order the mod authors suggest.
