I think the GWX team member that made that decision--and btw I believe that he is a very handsome and intelligent man--didn't want the team to spend all their days answering "GWX has CTDed!!1! Did I install it right?" questions.

That would be great! Until you decided to uninstall a mod. If you suck (your words) at such a simple task as placing files into a folder, then how are you going to navigate the "Add/Remove Programs" list to find the right mod to uninstall? Without inadvertently selecting "nVidia core drivers" or some other unrelated, but critical application, that would also appear in the same list? And ensuring that you selected the mods to uninstall in the right order so as not to "break" your SH5 installation? And without coming back here and tying up the forum with more "How do I uninstall?" posts.

The simple solution for "now" is not always the simple solution for "tomorrow".

IMHO modders should be left to focus on modding SH5, not handle computer 101 problems.

No. If a modder can take the time out of his or her life to make a mod, you can take the time to figure out how to install it if you want to use it.

And well, honestly, once you get used to it - you will find that JSGME saves not only modders' time, but it saves your time as well. It's a great tool for managing your game configuration from one place, instead of having to install/uninstall things separately.
