Mod Organizer Setup Issues

Portable Instances

Setup a Portable Instance:

Start by downloading Mod.Organizer-X.X.X.7z ("x.x.x" will be the latest version number) and extract it to a folder.
Start the ModOrganizer.exe follow the first time setup tool to create a portable instance for the game you want to mod.

Navigate to the downloads folder and paste the Mod.Organizer-X.X.X.7z into there and create a Mod.Organizer-X.X.X.7z.meta containing the following text:

 [General]
 installed=true
 directURL=https://github.com/ModOrganizer2/modorganizer/releases/download/vX.X.X/Mod.Organizer-X.X.X.7z

Replace X.X.X with the correct version number.
