Play Mod crashes game
Anyone having the game crash instantly you click play mods? I haven't played in a while and wanted to get back in with the mod update but seems to crash every time i click the option.
loading into an old save file works fine and doesn't crash (aside from the stutter). I thought i removed all old mods and even did a clean install of the game but maybe I'm missing something?

You have to allow access to controlled folder.

Open Windows Security

Click Virus & threat protection

Click Manage settings (under Virus & threat protection settings)

Under Controlled folder access click Manage Controlled folder access

Click Allow an app through Controlled folder access

Browse and Add HogwartsLegacy.exe




Hope this helps!

What? Read what you've typed before hitting post. You've contradicted yourself by saying the game is crashing with mods but you can get into an old save. It can't be both. If the game is crashing with mods you cannot get into any save, as the game is crashing. If you can get into an old save then the game isn't crashing.
Yeah my game is also freezing and half minute after crashing when i click on view and install mods

If you read my first sentence it says when I click "play mods" which is the new feature

Weird wonder if it's something in the app data folder left behind by an old mod
