Addons stopped working

Hello!

Ive started playing again after 5-6 months and now all my addons stopped working, I deleted all of them and redownloaded them but they still wont show up. Since I couldnt figure it out I decided to delete the entire game and folder and all the bits and pieces and redownload it. after redownloading, restarting, redownloading all the addons and all that jazz they still wont show up!

This is getting pretty annoying because they worked before I quit... and I didnt change anything what so ever.

And before you ask if I put them in the right folder and enabled them and checked the "load out of data addons" yes I did all of that. I cleared the cash, I downloaded the right versions and everything.

Looked around on the forums aswell, nothing is working BTW hence why im making this post.

It might be as simple as when you unzip your program can create a folder for them naked like the addon and within it is a folder with the addons, then the game won't recognize it.
I made the mistake and it's easy to overlook.
