+===== Mods do not show up in-game =====
+If you are certain you have installed mods and it says that no mods were loaded in-game, then you have folder permission issues.\\
+This usually happens when you install your game inside ''C:\Program Files\'' or ''C:\Program Files (x86)\'' which is a bad practice.\\
+For this reason it's always better to install games and game launchers to ''C:\Games\'' or ''D:\Games\''.\\
+There are 4 ways you can fix this issue:
+  - Re-install UMF. This will rewrite the folder permissions needed by UMF.
+    * If this does not work it usually means you have some other software such as Anti-Virus that prevents or undo any changes UMF makes to the folder permissions.
+  - Manually set the permissions on your **Game Folder** to give you full read/write rights recursively.
+  - Install the game in a better location where Windows isn't trying to limit your access to your games.
+  - Always run the game as administrator every single time.
