How does one clear an extension list?
I've unsubbed from several mods and manually deleted everything in x4 foundation modlist but it's still retrieving several hundred mods i don't want in the list?

Does anyone have any ideas i'm just trying to cut out non functional mods and outdated ones but this is being a bit of an issue.

Sound like the mods still in the extension folder.
go to main directory of your game.
go into extensions file.

Delete everything EXCEPT!!!!!!
ego_dlc_split
ego_dlc_terran.
Don't go deleting your DLC now if you own them.

your documents/egosoft/X4/number/

content.xml

this file contains a list of any and all extensions and dlcs you ever downloaded.

just delete every string that is not named "ego_dlc_whatever" and re save that file.

I might just hafto do this. Reinstalled the game several times, disabled Steam Cloud, unlinked oneDrive from "My Documents", manually removed the strings from content.xml, manually deleted all files in My Documents and in Steam. Still old mods pop up in the extensions list when I reinstalled. Why is this so damn hard?
