Removing Mods from Ready or Not: A Comprehensive Guide

Ready or Not's modding community offers exciting enhancements, but mods can sometimes cause instability or prevent multiplayer with unmodded players. This guide details how to completely remove all mods from your game.

Removing Mods: Step-by-Step Instructions

Regardless of your mod installation method (Nexus Mod Manager, mod.io, etc.), these steps will remove all mods:

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

  2. Steam Directory Access: Open Steam, right-click Ready or Not in your Library, select Properties, then Installed Files, and finally Browse. This opens the game's directory.

  3. Delete Paks Folder (Main Directory): Navigate to Ready Or Not > Content > Paks. Delete all files and folders within the Paks folder. Then, delete the Paks folder itself.

  4. Delete Paks Folder (LocalAppData): Press Windows+R, type %localappdata%, and press Enter. Locate the Ready Or Not folder, then navigate to Saved > Paks. Delete the Paks folder here as well.

  5. Verify Game Files: Right-click Ready or Not in Steam, go to Properties > Installed Files > Verify Integrity of Game Files. This ensures a clean installation.

  6. Optional Reinstall: For a completely fresh start (recommended if you don't plan to use mods again), consider reinstalling the game.

Why Delete Mods?

While mods enhance Ready or Not, they can introduce errors, bugs, and glitches. A clean mod removal often resolves these issues. Furthermore, mods prevent multiplayer with friends who don't have the same mods installed. Deleting mods ensures compatibility and smoother gameplay with unmodded players.

Ready or Not is available now for PC.
