Hello Flostt,
Well i have gone for your second option and installed it to the root folder,
I downloaded some more mods and although it all looked like it worked as it said the mod was activated it did not show up,
I can't understand it as i know its been a long time since i played SH5 on my old PC because i installed mods back then in it, so i don't know, i thought that now i have a new PC it would be ok!!
Never mind i will play it as it is, i may uninstall it all and try again but at the moment after trying quite a few hours today to get it to work i feel like i have lost all my hair!
Thanks again for your help,
Cheers,
Roger.
