How to find mods NOT from an installer?

Post » Fri Aug 10, 2012 1:41 pm

Hey,

I accidentally deleted some installers in Wrye Mash without first uninstalling them. The result is that there are a few stray plugin / data files that I don't actually want anymore. It will take some time to work out manually which mods these are, so I'm wondering if there is a shortcut?

Thanks,

Well, I don't know if this is the best way to do it, but since you are usng Mash Installers, if you just want to tidy up "Data Files" you could try uninstalling all your mods, which is pretty easy with Mash. Then look in Data Files for stuff that looks leftover. Move that stuff to a temporary directory, just in case you still need it, then reinstall all the mods you want with Mash, and if you accidentally got rid of anything you need, it should be in your temp directory and you can put it back.

I would reinstall the unwanted mods, then just go back and uninstall them the correct way.
