BIGEARs2501 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 "Ho there wanderer, stay thy course to indulge an old man." As the title suggests I'm planning on formatting and reinstalling Windows in the next few months. My question is simply, is there a way to back up my list of MODs in the steamapps folder while deleting NEXUS, to then reinstall NEXUS and have it detect the MODs already there? I've attempted a test run of this by backing up Skyrim with the MOD files within it, uninstalling/reinstalling NEXUS, and crossing my fingers. Failed, I had to redownload the MODs I had to get NEXUS to list them. Has anyone found a way to back up MODs? It would be a great help if someone could guide me in this. Oh and 100 points to the person who can tell me where I got that quote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
