I cannot find my mods folder in my .minecraft file [closed]
I have tried various tips, such as:
"make a new 'mods' folder in your thing and put your mod in"
"it automatically creates a new folder for mods on it's own after booting up stuff like Forge"
I am running on Windows 10 and I am using Forge for 1.12.1
Any advice?
First, make sure that Minecraft Forge is actually installed. You can check by starting Minecraft, and checking if there is a button labeled "mods" on the title screen. If there isn't, then your problem is with the way you installed Forge.
If you do see the button, you can enter your .minecraft folder and create a new folder called "mods". Then copy and paste all mods there.
However, you mentioned in the comments of your original post that you already did this. You also mentioned that you are installing a mod-pack and not a mod. Depending on which mod-pack you are installing, this process could be completely different.
If the mod-pack was designed for the Technic Launcher, you can simply download that launcher and search for your mod-pack from within it. This will automatically install it. If your mod-pack was not designed the Technic Launcher, check the page where you downloaded the pack from for additional instructions.
If you still can't figure it out, try searching both Google and YouTube for [Mod-pack name] install
