Mods folder missing after installing Iris and Sodium in Minecraft

Good morning. As soon as I downloaded Iris and Sodium I lost the mods folder from the .minecraft folder, but the mods folder is in the .iris-installer folder (AppData\Roaming.iris-installer\Iris-Sodium-1.21.1.zip\mods). Could you please tell me how to get the mods folder back?

it shouldn't do that, but Fabric makes a new mods folder every time you launch the game, or you can make one yourself

I tried to make the mods folder myself, but it doesn't work

Mods that I add to the mods folder do not work

what installation are you launching? you need to launch Fabric to use mods. If you're launching Iris & Sodium you will only ever have Iris and Sodium loaded

I downloaded Fabric and launched the game from my profile, in the official launcher that Fabric created, but the mods still don't work. Maybe it's the mod itself, I'll try to download another one

make sure the mods you are installing are for Fabric, not Forge or NeoForge

Ok, I'll download another mod and report back if it works.

I've downloaded several random mods, but Fabric always gets almost the same error (I'll attach a photo) After downloading the Forge Config API Port, the Fabric profile stopped running altogether

send your latest.log after installing Forge Config API Port and running the game

How to get crash reports and logs
It is highly advisable you upload your crash reports and logs to https://mclo.gs/ then share the link in Discord for easier reading and censoring potentially sensitive information. Otherwise, you can drag and drop the file directly into Discord. Crash reports can be found in the crash-reports sub-directory in .minecraft on clients, or the crash-reports sub-directory of the server directory for servers. We're probably interested in the most recent file. Logs can be found in the logs sub-directory in .minecraft on clients, or the logs sub-folder of the server directory for servers. We're probably interested in the file named latest.log.
