1. what mod for which game?
2. have you read instructions for installing the mod?
3 have you restarted PC? (you probably have several times)
4. have you checked the filesize of your download? maybe it was incomplete.

Mods are usually easy enough to install, so it is important to know what mod it is you are having problems with. Describe the process of what you are doing and maybe we can help you.

Source engine error, unable to locate folder/asset. You probably made a mistake when moving/copying the files.

I have no experience with the engine/games so I'm unable to help, and unwilling to remotely troubleshoot. Include more relevant information next time.
