Bug Summary

One day everything was fine. The Next day the game isn't reading my mods, BGMM gets an error "The Handle is Invalid" everytime I open it or it goes to open screen and nothing happens.

Have verified game files. Have reinstalled BG3MM including all mods and the data folder from game. Same deal.

Took me a long time to find an answer to this one - it was ultimately a windows 11 issue. Two security features had been switched off that apparently I needed on.

Solve was:
Windows 11: Start menu > type 'services' > check that "Volume Shadow Copy" and "Windows Backup" were 'started'. mine were not. Starting them solved the issue.
