Yea I've tried to ways now. I've extracted directly into the data folder and starting the game as is and I still have to activate them through the mod list which disables achievements. I've also removed the mod named folders and just put their contents in public to see if that works, and it doesn't. Am I supposed to dump the mod folders in mods as well into public or what? No matter what I do it seems to be as simple as just extract and start but they don't work. Trying to the faster out of combat run speed mod, removed bush/rocks while sneaking (because I think it looks silly), party increase, and greed mod. No matter what I do they will not activate without me having to activate them.
