Subject: tModLoader Startup Error – System.IO.FileNotFoundException
Dear tModLoader Support Team,
I am experiencing an issue when trying to start tModLoader. Upon launch, I receive a fatal error message, and the program crashes. The error log indicates the following issue:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\Users\User\Documents\My Games\Terraria\ModLoader\Mods'.
It seems that the program is unable to locate or create the required directory. I have checked, and the folder does not exist. The full error message is visible in the attached screenshot.
I have tried the following troubleshooting steps without success:
Restarting my PC.
Verifying the integrity of the tModLoader files via Steam.
Manually creating the missing "Mods" folder.
Reinstalling tModLoader.
The client log file was generated in:
C:\VALLES\STEAM\Neuer Ordner\steamapps\common\tModLoader\tModLoader-Logs
Could you please assist me in resolving this issue? Let me know if you need any additional information.
Best regards

Welcome to #support-forum. Before someone helps you, please first consult the information in #TML Troubleshooting Guide and try all the suggestions that might fit your particular issue, especially in the linked FAQ page.
If the information in the pinned thread does not solve your issue, please post all log files by dragging and dropping them into this chat. In Steam right click on
tModLoader in the library, then hover over Manage and click on Browse local files. In the folder that appears find tModLoader-Logs and open that folder. Inside that folder are the logs files. Select them all except the Old folder and drag them into this chat. If you need a visual guide to this process watch this: https://github.com/tModLoader/tModLoader/assets/4522492/3f4efa43-753f-4733-b630-ba85e711340cprovincial-silverOP•8mo ago
