In the same folder where you find the usermaps folder for the custom maps, there should also be a mods folder. This is where the game mods go. You will also find a mods folder in the profiles folder under each profile. This mods folder contains the player data for those mods and is what you should be backing up with your profile. If you delete the game mod, does it download again? Awards

Hello! I have that issue with the new mode. I got an error between two maps. I have got to leave the game (the server) and come back to start the new map. Do you know what causes this problem? PS: it happens even when it doesn't download a new map... Edited June 23, 2020 by VHS2 Awards

If I were having trouble with a mod, I'd delete the mod in the mods folder directly under CoDWaW and let the game download it again. RobMc 1 Awards

Steam install is a bit different though. So when backing up player profiles, the player data for each mod is part of that backup. Edited June 24, 2020 by Merlin007 Awards
