Removing Mods from Ready or Not: A Comprehensive Guide

Ready or Not benefits greatly from community-created mods, enhancing gameplay significantly. However, mods can sometimes lead to instability and prevent multiplayer sessions with unmodded players. This guide provides a complete method for removing all mods from your Ready or Not installation.

How to Delete Ready or Not Mods

Regardless of your mod installation method (Nexus Mod Manager, mod.io, or manual), follow these steps to remove them:

  1. Unsubscribe: Launch Ready or Not. In the in-game Mod Menu, unsubscribe from all active mods. This prevents automatic re-downloads after deletion. Close the game.

  2. Delete Game Files: Open Steam, right-click Ready or Not in your Library, select Properties, then Installed Files, and finally Browse. This opens the game's directory. Navigate to Ready Or Not > Content > Paks. Delete all files within the Paks folder, then delete the Paks folder itself.

  3. Delete Local AppData Files: Press Windows+R, type %localappdata%, and press Enter. Locate the Ready Or Not folder, then navigate to Ready Or Not > Saved > Paks. Delete the Paks folder here as well.

  4. Verify Game Files: In Steam, right-click Ready or Not, go to Properties > Installed Files > Verify Integrity of Game Files. This ensures the game's core files are intact.

  5. Optional Reinstall: For a completely clean slate (recommended if you don't plan to use mods again), consider reinstalling Ready or Not.

Why Delete Mods?

While mods offer fantastic additions to Ready or Not, they can introduce errors, bugs, and glitches. A clean mod removal often resolves these issues. Additionally, mods prevent multiplayer with friends who don't have the same mods installed. Deleting mods ensures compatibility and smooth online gameplay.
