I’ve noticed that some files are mysteriously missing from a folder, but strangely, the space they occupy is still taken up. This problem seems tied to using Mod Organizer 2, particularly with changing the mod source location. I already checked the recycle bin—no luck there. Has anyone experienced this or knows what might be happening here?

In Mod Organizer 2, mods you delete often end up in the recycle bin. But since you’ve already checked there, something else might be going on. Are you sure they’re not somewhere else on your system, like hiding in another directory by mistake?
MO2 keeps two versions of each mod: one in the ‘downloads’ folder and another in the ‘mods’ folder after installation. You might want to double-check each of these folders to ensure they’re not just hanging out in one of them. If you’re using Wabbajack to download, that’s another layer to consider since it can have a different folder setup altogether.
