How to fix the mod removal plus Cloud problem

[Webbstre]

Since this happens a lot, I'm just going to make a single post and let Brian sticky if for you all. If you use certain mods and then remove them, the cloud may continue to load your modded saves, resulting in a crash on start-up every time. The Cloud tends to ignore your settings and choice about loading the saves. Here is how to start fresh, with no saves and no mods:

WARNING: This WILL delete all of your saved characters.
1- Go into your application data/runic games/torchlight/ folder and delete both saves folders, and the contents of the mods folder.
2- Leave the window open, and start Torchlight.
3- When the cloud recreates your save folders, delete them before Torchlight finishes loading.

If this doesn't fix a start-up problem you are having, try verifying your game files within Steam. If that doesn't help, contact Runic's official customer support address, on their website.
