Jaguarnaut Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 This is becoming a worrying pattern. Removing mods in this manner just craps on all the users... because most of us do not save the Nexus page containing the mod info, assuming we can get back to it to read up on how to uninstall the mod later. Now i have two mods that I want to remove but don't know how (they have no esp file), because the entire mod page has been wiped from the Nexus, gone without a trace.

Bannor9 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 If you are using NexusModManager, you can just un-check the mod first, then select it and use the large red x box on the left hand side of the mod window and it will confirm you want to delete it and will completely remove all files, including the archive. Otherwise, if you have the original archive file .7z, .zip, .rar whatever, just open that. View it by folder and delete all the files it will have installed. If you don't have the original archive, well, that is something altogether different, and there is no way to actually determine what was installed and what has to be removed easily. Once you have removed all the files with either method above, load your save game, you will likely get an error message about missing files, click ok, then save it again. Now, when you re-load from that new save, the error messages will disappear. Any objects/items (weapons, armour, etc) that was added by the mod you just removed may disappear unless they were just re-skinned objects. You MAY have other issues with your save game depending on the complexity of the mod involved. Best bet would be to revert to a save PRIOR to having the original mod installed in the first place.
