One thing to look out for, however, is that all of the mods you want to install are for the same version of Minecraft. If they are not, they will not work.
Step 3) Getting To The .minecraft Folder
Youve downloaded the mods you want to play, and youve made sure they are all for the same version of Minecraft/Forge. Now, how do you actually go about installing them?!? From here, its actually pretty simple. Hit the Windows Key on your keyboard, and R at the same time. This will open up the Run program. In the search box, type %appdata% and then hit enter. This will open your App Data folder, and in it, there should be a folder called .minecraft. Open up that folder, and then move on to the next step!
Step 4) Installing The Mods
At this point, any difficulty when it comes to installing Minecraft Forge mods is done. Now, all you need to do is open the mods folder and drag and in the mods youve downloaded. Wait, what? You dont have a mods folder!?! No worries. Just create one like in the gif above. Right-click anywhere in the .minecraft folder, and create a new folder titled mods all lower case. Then, open the new folder youve created and drag and drop in the awesome Forge mods you downloaded earlier in this tutorial!
