Ive already looked at the GTAV Mod Manager Tutorial Part 2 which says that the scripts folder is no longer necessary for this manager and you just put every mod in it's own separate sub folder and the mods should work.

Tutorial
Thanks again to Apanda!
Adding Mods
With previous versions, installing package mods required you to first extract the '.package' files somewhere, and then add them with the manager.
In the current version of TS4MM, that step is removed. If the package mod or mods that you have downloaded are contained in a '.zip', '.rar', or '.7z' archive, you can simply drag them in to the manager, or add them with the button, and the manager will automatically extract any '.package' files in the archive into your Mods folder.
You do not have to worry about whether or not the mod you download is a script mod. The manager will discern the difference by looking at the contents of the archive, and if it is a script mod, it will copy it to your Mods folder.
Hotkeys
Applies only to the mod manager tab.

Key	Action
Ctrl + A	Add mod(s)
Delete	Remove selected mod(s)
Ctrl + R	Refresh mod list
Ctrl + E	Enable selected mod(s)
Ctrl + D	Disable selected mod(s)
Ctrl + Shift + R	Rename mod
Ctrl + Shift + A	Select all mods

Unzip and extract anywhere, then double-click 'TS4MM_<version>-Setup.exe' and follow the steps for installation. After it's installed, simply double-click the icon on your desktop named 'TS4 Mod Manager'.
Requires .NET Framework 4 or higher.

Third workaround found by rpastorcale:

1. Hover over the icon for The Sims 4 Mod Manager
2. Wait for the preview to show
3. Right-click on the preview and click Maximize

To prevent this bug
The best way to prevent this bug from happening is to not close TS4MM while it is minimized.
This bug happens because I made it so that the location of the window on your screen would be saved to a configuration file, so that when you open TS4MM again, it would be in the same place you last opened it.
What I should have done in the first place, is make it so that it would not save it's location while minimized.
I apologize for my mistake. This will be fixed in the next update.

Mod Organizer Mod Limit Table

• Can I have too many mods? 6 answers

I wanted to know how many Nexus Mods I can install and run on Skyrim before the game can't handle anymore. I'm looking to install a lot of mods that fix bugs, graphics, NPCs and other general fixes for the game that make the game a much better experience.

At the moment I have around 30 mods installed and the game is running fine, but I don't know how far I can go with the number of mods until I break something.

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.

The absolute upper-limit is 253 total mods. This only counts certain types of mods, though; specifically, ones that add a .esm or .esp file so they can change actual data in-game (i.e. not mods that simply change models or textures). This also does include the expansions, and any such mods downloaded through Steamworks rather than Nexus.

The reason for the limit is that Skyrim (and other Bethsoft games) uses an internal code (the Form IDs) for everything added by a mod. The first two hex digits indicate where this thing came from, with 00 being the base game, 01 being official patches to the base game, and FF being reserved for items created by player interaction (custom potions, items dropped in-world, summoned NPC refIDs, etc). This leaves only 253 prefixes for other mods, before the game simply cannot load up items from the mod.

Note, of course, that any given collection of 253 mods is likely to be impossible to run together anyway for reasons of mod conflicts or of your computer simply being unable to handle them all. 253 is just the absolute theoretical upper limit.

Well, it depends on your PC specs and the mods you're installing, some break because of conflict, some break because your PC simply can't handle it anymore. You'll be fine as long as the mods are not conflicting.
