I am having problems with steam workshop modding. I had around 95 steam workshop mods and then all of them disappeared from the launcher and in-game. I have tried everything I was able to find online. I have even tried unsubscribing and resubscribing to all of the mods I had downloaded. I have absolutely no clue what to do now and I really wish to use my mods. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I tried signing out of steam and signing back in, I tried restarting my computer, I unsubscribed and resubscribed to all my mods, I tried waiting a few days to see if it was a time-fixable issue, I've done everything short of uninstalling steam and reinstalling

Hello,
could you please upload Launcher logs so we can investigate what happened? You can create a ZIP archive with logs from Launcher menu in top right corner.

Hello,
we've seen this error before. Steam has updated the list of your subscribed items but didn't include tags that identify items as mods.
Only solution I can think of is go to Steam Workshop and subscribe and unsubscribe few items for Arma 3 while Launcher is running. That should force Steam to send the updated list, hopefully with correct tags.

No luck with that. If you have any other solutions that might have worked in the past, I'm all ears.

These steps might help, but no guarantees:
- switch Steam client between off-line and on-line mode;
- switch to Steam beta client, restart the client, let it update to beta and then switch back;
- let Launcher run for some time, it might take some time for Steam to send the updated list.
Basically Steam should send the list of the subscribed mods every time you start Launcher and every time the list is changed. According to the logs, Steam send you corrupted list on 13th November and then it didn't send anything; before that it send you the list of subscribed items only on 24th,25th,26th October (that's the latest log there is). Is it possible that for example you internet connection changed in that time or anything that might be related to that?

Yes, my internet connection has changed recently. I went to my parents house recently and used their internet. Could that have something to do with it? I tried the Steam online to offline and that didn't work. How do I change the Steam client to beta? I will try that one first and if it doesn't work then i will let it sit with the launcher open and see if that doesn't fix it.

It would meter if you changed the connection permanently, so it doesn't matter if you only connected once. Although it might be good idea to try to update the list while on a different connection to see if that helps.
How to join Steam Client Beta:
- Go to Steam > Settings in the Steam client. The Beta Participation section will tell you if there are any beta programs available, or if you are currently running one of them.
- Click on the Change... button in the client participation section and select one of the choices available in the drop-list of beta programs.
- Click OK and restart Steam when you are prompted to do so.
- After the restart a window with Steam update has to appear. If it does not, restart the Steam again.

I figured out the solution. All you have to do is switch arma 3 to beta testing mode then switch out of it. I am more than happy that I am able to use my mods again and I thank you for taking your time to help me. I hope this helps anybody that has the same problem as me.
