Installed Forge, but nothing is happening?

Hi everyone,

I am trying to figure out why my mods aren't loading. I installed forge for 1.10.2 with the installer, both the java installer and the windows installer. the forge version shows up in my launcher.

 

I am attempting to use these mods:

I have custom texture packs installed.

 

Is there anything I am doing wrong? I'm not too clear on how to activate the mods, but their hotkeys don't work when I load my game.

I am going to try a complete uninstall/reinstall and see how that works. Apologies!
