Help!! Windows accounts nightmare

[Kingbarrington]

Here is the problem I want to mod Gta V. But when you mod Gta V you cant play online anymore. And I still want to do that. So I thought I will just create another account. Easy right? Wrong. As turns out all the changes I make to the Gta folder in my second account also happen in my main account. I do have a 250gb hard drive lying around from an old MacBook. Mabey I could install windows on that and boot from that every time I want to use mods? I'm running windows 10 home and I installed gta v from steam if it helps.

Use two different game folders, one with mods, other without.

Can't you run the installer  and simply select different folder?

Find GTA:V game folder

Copy it
Paste it

Rename when wanting to switch from one to another

 

You can try starting the game from the exe directly without renaming, but I haven't tested, don't know if it works.
