gwx install issue

Hi folks

I'm having trouble installing GWX 2.1. I've followed the instructions up until they tell me to double-click the GWX2.1 icon. When I do i go into the installation process but it informs me that I've got mods installed by JSGME in the folder and askes me to disable them. It's a clean install, patched to 1.4 with GWX 2.0 installed. I've checked on JSGME and it doesn't show any mods enabled.

Can anyone help please?

In the Silent Hunter III folder, Open \MODS\!BACKUP\data.
If it's empty no mods are installed.
Delete the data folder and run the install again.

Thanks Privateer. I saw this on the GWX 2.1 post but I couldn't find the !backup folder. Once you gave me the address of where it was I realised it was a hidden folder.

Thanks a lot for your help and thanks to all the GWX crew for a great piece of work!
