Default Maps and charts

As you can see I have the compass and ship identification books but have lost my grid overlay (I think that is what it's called) it hides in the same folder as flags.
Any ideas where it might be hiding I have ran my mouse all around the edges until it begged for mercy.

As requested screenshot of mods enabled.
When I say the same folder I mean in the folder that drags out while in the game, not in the main H folder as I say it was there yesterday?

Also after deleting ***dragables TDW from folder
The language seems to have chanced too, no matter where I click nothing now works.
It looks like a reinstall

That was a quick reply.
The asterixs could mean anything? so I deleted all files that were dragables with TDW.
I have just checked and all of the files are in my recycle bin so I can restore them.

Sorry to be such a pest but now as I have got all running as it should, and I thank you for that.
Can you point me to where I can find out how to put a mark through the grid where the move marker is, I saw in a video it done then a circle was drawn to give the patrol area which I think was 50k.
I am going to watch the video again now to see if I can catch what wassaid.
Regards
Terry

Found the video "Let`s Play Silent Hunter 5 (Wolves of Steel Megamosd # 3 - Oops, I`m Sorry Sweden" The grid bit is at 7.21 and he closes the grid then marks it.
Finger on the spot.
Thanks all
