Purpose of These Scripts

These scripts are designed to remove all cached information about the mods in the Oxygen Not Included game. By forcing the game to reinstall the mods and update them, these scripts can help resolve issues when the app crashes on launch after installation or version upgrade.

• The script will clean up the mods folder
• The script will clean up Steam/steamapps/workshop/appworkshop_457140.acf file that holds all the references of the mods installed from workshop
• The script will clean up mods.json that stored saved configuration of active mods
