Game Crash on Startup - Plugin Failed to Load because Module could not be found...
Hello -- I am baffled as to why this modloader is not working. I have a relative fresh Satisfactory instal. After installing SMM I downloaded mods that were compatible and when trying to launch I get an error that a "module... could not be found. Please ensure the plugin in properly installed..."
I checked the game folder and can confirm that the mods are installed in the correct location:
D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Satisfactory\FactoryGame\Mods
If I "Turn Mods Off" in SMM the game loads just fine. I just cannot seem to instal any mods - as I have tried a few different ones, each giving me the same message but with different module names. I would really appreciate any advice as I have modded many games without running in to this type of issue.
I have also verified the game files.
Thanks so much.

Solution
OMG it finally worked. So after uninstalling the game for the second time - there are still a heap of files left over in the Satisfactory folder under steamapps/common/Satisfactory - some dating back to 2023 - so i deleted this whole folder, reinstalled the game and the mods and the game ran without any issues.
