==="Oops, couldn't find the game automatically"===
If the installer shows that message, you can help it find the game folder. To do that:
# Exit the installer.
# [[Modding:Player Guide/Getting Started#Find your game folder|Find your game folder]].
# Move the installer '''folder''' into the game folder. (Make sure you move the whole folder, not just the files inside it!)
# Run the installer again and it should auto-detect the game folder now.
You can safely delete the installer folder when it's done.
===Issues with SMAPI or mods===
See the [[Modding:Player Guide/Troubleshooting|troubleshooting page]] for help with issues after installation.
