:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.

I was messing around with the mods/subscribed folders. I added a folder and deleted the mods-status.json file. I tried opening the game and it crashed. It showed me the Bugsplat. I deleted the folder I created and the mods-status.json file but the game stills crashes.

I’m pretty sure it’s the mods, because the log files indicate that the game crashes while enabling the subscribed mods. I have a lot of mods, so I can’t go around unsibscribing manually from the mods page. I mean, I could, but it would be a long process

Edit: I already unistalled and installed

Edit:
SOLVED
In the mods-status.json file, I replaced every instance of the word
true
to the word
false
