[FIX] Missing downloaded files in DZSA Launcher w/ mods
So i had this problem for a few days, and just recently found out the fix to the issue. If you have the same issue or your friends do then share and hopefully it can help them play the game again:)

So mainly I had the issue in Steam showing "missing downloaded files" problem, and in the Launcher itself the mods would be at 0Mb/0Mb at all times, and nothing would fix it. However, when I went to the workshop folder in Steam folder (should be something like Steam/steamapps/workshop) i deleted everything in the "downloads" folder, and also removed all of the .acf files in the workshop folder itself. Remember: you have to delete ALL the files in "downloads" folder, including .patch files.

After that, i went to the launcher, pressed verify on 1 mod, and then force-download button in steam downloads. Had to delete the files a few times, but all the mods downloaded without a problem after that!!!!!

Hope it can help you and your friends if you have the same issue!
