Managing storage space

Once the installation is complete, you are free to delete the downloads folder or move it to a different drive to save space.

However, please be aware that if you delete these files, you will have to redownload every mod when a new update for the modlist is released. If you have the extra space, we highly suggest keeping the downloads folder intact to make future updates faster.

After installation

Congratulations! Once the Wabbajack process is complete, navigate to your installation folder, then:

  • Windows users: Open the FALLEN WORLD WINDOWS LAUNCHER folder and run Launcher.exe

The launcher will guide you through the final setup steps and prepare your game for play. For more details on the first launch, see the Launching section.
