Windows 10 mods?

[dexter2]

Do mods work in Windows 10.

what mods? UI/start menu changers? as far as I can see, yes?

If you meant something else, you should specify what.

I generally mean any mods. But I did hear something about not being able to get mods for games. Know anything about this?

I'm pretty 99.999% sure that windows 10 does not stop you from modding games. Only way it might somehow stop some 3rd party functionality (like mod managers) is if you install steam/mod managers in program files which is under "windows protected places" list.

so.. Install things elsewhere like c:\steam or c:\games instead and you can avoid those problems also.

Really? Huh that's weird, I heard different from Gameranx's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlRyfiBXYqc&ab_channel=gameranx (first minute of the video he talks about it)

According to the video and what I know of, that pretty much applies ONLY to apps/games bought through windows STORE.
so if you use any other provider, Uplay, EA store, steam, whatever else, it wont change how they work.

Ahh I see, okay, thank you so much to clear that all up for me! Thanks.
