Posted March 11, 20187 yr I use Windows 10 and I downloaded the latest version of Forge (1.12.2 - 14.23.2.2624). I was then told all I needed to do for using Mods in Minecraft was the find the Mod and add the files to the \minecraft file structure Forge created. Problem is, the structure it says it has doesn't exist when I manually try to navigate to it. See screenshot below. When I do a file search for "Forge" it shows that this file is in C:\Users\Noel\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft... But when I pop open Explorer to get there, there is no "AppData" anywhere to be found. I can get to C:\Users\Noel but then that's it. No searching can turn anything up. I'd really like to use some Mods but I'm stumped. Any help would be super appreciated. Sorry for what I'm sure is a pretty rookie question!
March 11, 20187 yr go to \%AppData% not \AppData AppData is a hidden system directory that is used to store program data files. You can get to your Mods folder by opening minecraft and using to to open your Resource Packs folder, then going up a folder. In that folder there should be an empty folder named Mods. Create a desktop shortcut to it, whatever you like - your mods go here Edited March 11, 20187 yr by Cadiboo About Me Spoiler My Discord - Cadiboo#8887 My Website - Cadiboo.github.io My Mods - Cadiboo.github.io/projects My Tutorials - Cadiboo.github.io/tutorials Versions below 1.14.4 are no longer supported on this forum. Use the latest version to receive support. When asking support remember to include all relevant log files (logs are found in .minecraft/logs/), code if applicable and screenshots if possible. Only download mods from trusted sites like CurseForge (minecraft.curseforge.com).

March 11, 20187 yr AppData is a hidden folder by default. Just typing in the address manually will bring you there, and as Cadiboo said, you can open it in game through the resource packs menu. I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon
