Hancock isn't working anymore.
I recently downloaded a mod that allowed me to save Father and I went to go get Hancock to face his fake brother only for him to not follow me properly and just walk off in a random direction and I uninstalled the mod and went back to a previous save only to realize it wasn't the mod fault for some reason Hancock just won't follow me anymore I don't know how to fix him...

Companions have sandbox behavior. Sometimes they follow you, sometimes they wander off and interact with objects. For instance I was doing Nuka World with Gage and I turned around and he had wandered away and was sitting in a chair. There's been instances where I turn around and the companion is just gone, However if you enter a new cell he should appear next to you. Usually if you run in a direction he'll start following you again.

Did you leave any conversations hanging somewhere in a settlement or with an NPC?
Not that I know of?

Does Hancock or any vendor talk to you?

Do you have your DIALOG CAMERA on or off in your settings?
Well the other companions are working perfectly fine... I haven't talked to a vendor yet.

Has he tried giving you any missions or quests? And is he a companion or just npc right now? If he's a companion-level friend try sending him to a settlement?
Last time I talked to him he gave me the quest to go check out Pickman's gallery, also I had him with me when I was doing the silver shroud quest and that broke as well because after I save Kent the silver shroud radio broadcast never came back on and I couldn't talk to Hancock as a silver shroud

Would sending him to a settlement fix his AI? Because if it does I will do that because I have a mod installed that allows me to send companions back to their original home.

How did you have hancock when that... well okay doin' things well out of order WILL screw up companions. It is usual that you'd have hancock AFTER doing the silver shroud. Since hancock is an npc you only talk to during that mission arc it probably didn't expect that at all.

I doubt that at this point anything will correct for that, but you should just hard save and try it, and if it works it works, if not, you can always just revert to that manual save and try something else. Or just, y'know, give up on the guy.
