How to Clean the Mods Folder?

[Vasily]

Does anyone can tell me:
How to clear some unnecessary contents from the Mods folder, such as image, etc. When I unsubscribed to a mod, I found that there were still some pictures remaining in my Mods folder...

Delete the folder. If you don't know where the mods folder is go to your options it should tell you. It will either be on your C:\ drive or whichever drive you have TTS installed. There is a button in the options that takes you directly to the folder.

If you accidentally delete some of your workshop content it will be reinstalled when you start TTS again.

This mod folder is your cache. It stores all the content from any custom objects you ever loaded. It does this only when you load models, not when you subscribe to mods. Therefore, it doesn't know which objects are associated to which workshop mods, so it doesn't automatically delete anything. After all, you might save a few objects out of a workshop mod and then unsubscribe. You still want these objects to work after that, right?

So yes, manually clean it out. Any objects you still regularly use will then be just redownloaded to your cache. Alternatively, you can also turn the caching off, so it will then download the objects every time you load them and not store anything permanently on your PC.
