Satisfactory Mod Manager Error
I get the error shown in the image when I try to open the Satisfactory Mod Manager. There is no mod folder, and I couldn't open the program in any way. I would appreciate it if someone who knows how to solve this issue could help.

You cant play with mods on 1.0 yet!

If you're trying to launch the game without mods:
1.0 has renamed the game target, preventing SMM from being able to automatically uninstall mods for you.
1. To manually turn off mods, delete the FactoryGame/Mods folder from your game install directory manually. Here's how to find the game install directory: https://docs.ficsit.app/satisfactory-modding/latest/faq.html#Files_GameInstall
- Even after you do this, SMM still won't work, and you will still get the "folder that does not exist" error message! You have to launch the game from Epic/Steam for now. Close SMM and don't use it again until we announce that mods are updated.
- If you have issues launching the game after this, also delete the FactoryGame/Plugins folder, then verify your game files to restore it: https://docs.ficsit.app/satisfactory-modding/latest/faq.html#_how_do_i_verify_my_game_files

FactoryGame FolderWhat does it mean to start the game with Epic/Steam? I read about it but didn't understand.

Do you own the game on steam or epic?

Okay, you don't have any mods
So you should be able to launch the game via steam
My issue is not that the game won't start. I want to add a new language, so I need to open the Satisfactory Mod Manager, but it won't launch.
I'm not sure what you think the SMM will do in order to add a new language. if you're trying to translate the game then you can join the translation team in the official discord
I thought a new language translation was done through the Satisfactory Mod Manager. Do I need to join the translation team via Discord?
I'm not sure where that idea came from
