  4. Open Steam, right-click on *Ready or Not* in your Library, and select Properties.
  5. Navigate to Installed Files, then click Browse to access the game’s folder.

  7. Press Windows+R, type %localappdata%, and press Enter. Find the *Ready or Not* folder, navigate to Saved > Paks, and delete this Paks folder as well.
  8. You've now successfully removed all mods from the game. To ensure no residual issues, right-click on *Ready or Not* in Steam, go to Properties > Installed Files, and select Verify Integrity of Game Files.

Mods can enrich *Ready or Not* with new content and features, thanks to the game's robust mod support and user-friendly mod installation process. However, installing numerous mods can lead to errors, bugs, and glitches, as these are community-created and may not always be perfectly compatible. Often, the best solution to these issues is to remove all mods and reinstall them selectively.

Additionally, having mods installed can restrict your ability to play with others unless they have the exact same mods. If you're looking to enjoy the game with friends who are new to *Ready or Not*, deleting your mods is essential to ensure compatibility and a smooth multiplayer experience.
