I tried the workaround and it didn't work.
I hate how I am unable to disable mods now. I am stuck with a huge list of mods installed if I wish to play a modded character. This is bad as the more mods installed must surely make the game more unstable.
I try to keep my mod list down in size, but I am unable to do this now.
I keep a list of mods for different characters and uninstall/install mods for each of the characters (I know... I have a problem...lol) as I play them. This helps to keep game file size down. Yes, some mods can't do this, which is why most of my mods are not game-breaking and don't overwrite game files, or change how the game plays... I just use pretties like dice and standalone hair and heads, etc.
Please Larian, fix this problem that wasn't there before the last patch. Pretty please.
