Q&A for How to Add Mods to Minecraft

Downloading a mod will not give you a virus if you get it from a reputable source.

Minecraft no longer uses a bin folder, create your own folder in the Minecraft directory called mods. Then create another folder inside mods named the same as the Minecraft version you are running mods on (1.7.10, 1.10.2, etc.), and put your mods in it.

Download the mod as a ZIP, or whatever you downloaded it as, extract it, then move it into your mods folder. You do not have to be able to open the mod for it to work.

At this point in time, there are much better/easier ways to mod Minecraft. In fact, the bin folder doesn't exist anymore.

Open a folder called "versions." Select the version and open your version folder. Then you can open and copy the files.

Yes, it is possible, but keep in mind that mods aren't usually easy to create. They tend to take a lot of time and effort.

You can download Forge, which is a modloader that is updated after every game update.

If she plays on a sever, most severs don't require her to have to mods herself. However, to put mobs on a single player game, winrar or winzip is required. Almost all downloads come in a zip file which unzips those files.

Unfortunately, this will not work on a tablet. The hard drive on a tablet is very different from a phone's. You would have to find an app that could transfer the mods into your tablet.

This is very outdated, it's much easier now to just download Forge. Just install it and put the mods in a mod folder that you create.

As of now, there is no way to download mods on iOS devices, sorry!

Install Java if you have not already done so. Close Minecraft and any Minecraft launcher. From the Forge website, download the installer. Run the file with Java. You can do so from the command-line with: java -jar (file).jar. Run the installer and start the Minecraft launcher once finished. Select the "Forge" profile and play. If the game crashes, try an older or newer version of Forge.

C:\users\(yourusername)\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\versions\(version you're using, e.g. 1.11.2), and then you should find the .JAR file for the version of Minecraft you want to mod.

For the websites, all you have to do is go to the web addresses in your browser. For the software, follow the instructions aforementioned above.

Close out of Minecraft and go to the launcher. If you haven't already, switch the version to the Forge.

Right-click on the Minecraft icon on your desktop. Then, follow the bar down to "Folder Destination," which should take you to the .minecraft folder.

Normally If you don't see a mod folder, you can create one and it will work just fine. But usually when you download Forge then it creates a mod folder.

You must jailbreak as it is required. Read the steps in method 3 and click the link. It is legal, it just voids your warranty.

There isn't a maximum amount, as long as there are't any mods that are against each other.

You need to have your mom or dad install it.

Simple: just place all the mods you would like in your modpack in your mods folder and play away! If it doesn't work, check the mods you are using, as some mods do not work together. If you like, you can post your modpack on a website such as Technic.

Go into the profile editor, and find your forge profile. Double-click it, and at the bottom, under Java Settings, there will be a checkbox called "JVM Arguments." Tick this, and then in the text now editable, change "-Xmx1G" (or whatever -Xmx is) to "-Xmx2G." If this still does not work, try "-Xmx3G."

Delete the mod and try to download another version. Check to see if you're downloading the latest version. If it is up-to-date and it keeps crashing, either your device has limitations or the mod is not compatible.

Yes. When installing Forge, redirect it to install into your cracked Minecraft folder.

Click the "Profile" arrow to the right of the giant green Play button. A pop-up menu will appear. Next, click the "Minecraft Forge" option. This option will be the Minecraft Forge version number. Doing so will allow you to load the mods.

Once you open Minecraft on Bedrock edition, look to the left and you will see the word profile.
