Moved F04's Install DIR via Steam - Nexus Mods stopped working.

So I used Steam's built in tool for moving the install directory for a game.

 

Launch Steam.

Go to your Library.

Select game, right click and select Properties.

Select the Local Files tab.

Select button for Move Install Folder.

 

Basically, it moves the entire game to a new location within another/alternate SteamLibrary folder.

 

I needed to move my FallOut 4 to a new SSD to free up some space on an older one the game was originally installed on.

 

After doing so, I launched my Nexus Mod Manager and opened the Settings and made sure all the directories matched.

 

But now when I launch the game, I get the vanilla game, and none of my Nexus Mods are working.

 

Do I have to re-install all of my Mods now, or is there something else that needs to be done to make them all start working?

Ok, I seem to have fixed the problem.

In NMM, I selected Tools > Change Virtual Folders

The Directory listed there for the game was still the old original location, I changed it to the new location and NMM then immediately uninstalled all my mods, then automatically reinstalled them... all by itself. Process took less then a few minutes.

Now all the Mods are working properly!
