Mods can significantly enhance your gaming experience in *Ready or Not*, introducing fresh content and exciting features to the game. However, they can also lead to instability, errors, and prevent you from playing with friends who don't have the same mods installed. If you find yourself needing to remove all mods from *Ready or Not*, follow the comprehensive steps outlined below.

How To Remove Mods in Ready or Not

There are various methods to install mods in *Ready or Not*, whether manually or through platforms like Nexus Mod Manager or mod.io. Regardless of your method, deleting mods is straightforward. Here’s how:

  • Launch *Ready or Not*.
  • Navigate to the in-game Mod Menu and unsubscribe from all mods. This step ensures the mods won’t automatically redownload after deletion.
  • Close *Ready or Not*.
  • Open Steam, right-click on *Ready or Not* in your Library, and select Properties.
  • Go to Installed Files and click Browse to access the game’s folder.
  • Navigate to *Ready or Not* > Content > Paks.
  • Delete all files within the Paks folder, then delete the Paks folder itself.
  • Press Windows+R, type in %localappdata%, and press Enter.
  • Find the *Ready or Not* folder, go to Saved > Paks, and delete this Paks folder as well.
  • You have now successfully removed all mods from the game.
  • To ensure no residual bugs remain, right-click on *Ready or Not* in Steam, go to Properties > Installed Files, and select Verify Integrity of Game Files.

If you're not planning on reinstalling mods, consider giving your game a fresh reinstall. While not necessary, it can be beneficial.

Mods are a fantastic way to enrich *Ready or Not* with new content and features. The game boasts excellent mod support, and the developers have streamlined the process of downloading mods, making them accessible to all players.

However, installing numerous mods can lead to errors, bugs, and glitches. Since mods are community-created, some may introduce issues. Often, the simplest solution is to wipe all mods and reinstall them, which can resolve many problems.

Additionally, if you have mods installed, you won't be able to play with others unless they have the exact same mods. If you're looking to play with friends new to the game, you'll need to delete all mods to enjoy the game together.

*Ready or Not is available now for PC.*
