Description

What happened?

I had a backup of my 1.0 gamefiles from steam, I go to manage my mods for 1.0 with ficsit-cli, however it appears to be detecting the gamefiles for 1.1 when trying to install a mod.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached installations.json and profiles.json files, then reproduce the mod-management flow with the Windows amd64 CLI and the backed-up 1.0 game files. The issue is resolved when ficsit-cli identifies and manages the 1.0 installation rather than detecting the 1.1 files.
