WARNING DO NOT CLEAN YOUR MOD
Do NOT use the clean solution option in the visual studio SDK, it will delete everything in its parent folder and then some more-

In my case deleting dozens upon dozens gigs worth of data which i had to immediately recover.

161gigs to be precise.

So i think this happened because i had the mod project in a sub folder with the grandparent folder called "mods" and it tried to "clean" everything in that folder which to my shock was all my mods for all my games.

I've renamed that folder to something else, altho i'm not gonna test out if cleaning would delete my ♥♥♥♥ again.

Unfortunately i have no way to verify if any data was lost even after the recovery.

Hang in there. This sucks since I really like your mods for the base
