THE SLIDER DOES NOT SWITCH FROM OFF TO ON MOD IN THE LAUNCHER!!!

When you click on the slider in the launcher with the option to play with or without mods, it does not switch to the enabled position by default. I will be very grateful for any advice you can give. Reinstalling the game did not help.

You need to go to "free dlc" and download the redmod thing. It's required for the mods to work or what you're describing will happen.

Edit: To be clear you just need to have downloaded it, you don't need to run it or interact with it in any other way, it just needs to be installed for the launcher to function with the mods.

It's super dumb and doesn't explain itself very well.
Two things are the major causes of it.

1. The launcher doesn't give you an error message or help you at all when you've installed a mod and tried to run it. It's an official RED piece of software, so the launcher not telling you it needs to be installed for mods to work is just.. Weird.

2. The Redmod thing itself when you view it describes itself as a modding tool. Not the actual framework you need to make the mods work.
Which at least made me think it was exclusively for those who wanted to MAKE mods, not dimwits like me who just use the ones others have made.

I just wanted to mention that I use several mods from Nexus (Cyber Engine Tweaks (CET), Fixer's Hidden Gems and some others), and I haven't downloaded this Redmod thing yet. I've seen some of the mods on Nexus requires it, but so far I haven't used any of those.

And if I remember correctly (I'm not on the gaming PC now), I think that mod slider on the launcher is disabled for me as well, or even greyed out, but I could be wrong about that. Mods still work.

Also, the launcher always crashes for me when I start the game, but the game itself, the mods and bonus content and such work fine anyway.

Come to think of it, maybe I should download the Redmod thing to see if it fixes the launcher crashes.

But the launcher has been crashing for me since before I got Cyberpunk 2077 (and I only used it for The Witcher 3, which also works fine), so I don't think it's related.

To me, there is nothing left (in the "Free DLC"), I have all installed and that RedMod is not visible anywhere...
