Where to find the droid deck in the android/data folder...I cannot find it

[Atreyu4920]

Hey everyone

Where is the droiddeck folder on android phones like the s26 ultra

I'm trying to find it in the android/data folder in a file explorer but I cannot find it even though I'm using shizuku

Where is it

I'm using a file explorer called solid explorer

I tried other file explorers with shizuku and couldn't find it still

Any help ?

I'm not rooted

So I'm not sure how I would even go about finding these destinations

And plus I'm a noob too and don't understand some of what you say

I have the files app from marc apps and software

As well as x-plore file manager and solid explorer file manager

I can see the droid deck app icon on the left side bar of the files app

But in short I want to transfer mods to the witcher 3

I already have it installed

Following up on this question. Should the files be accessible easily by connecting to a computer?

@Atreyu4920 you don't need root, and you don't need Solid Explorer or X-plore to reach the game folder: DroidDeck has its own file manager that opens it directly. (@puppet-knight this is also the easiest way in, no computer needed.)

The DroidDeck entry you see in the side bar of the Files app is only DroidDeck's internal Linux system, not your games, so The Witcher 3 isn't in there.

Step by step

1. Unpack the mod first. Mods usually come as .zip, .7z or .rar. Open the downloaded file in X-plore or Solid Explorer and extract it into your Download folder. DroidDeck's file manager can copy and move files, but it doesn't unpack archives.
2. Open DroidDeck, go to Games, select The Witcher 3 and tap Game files. This opens DroidDeck's file manager inside the game's install folder (the one with the bin, content and dlc folders).
3. In that file manager, open the Internal drive, go to Download, select the mod folder you extracted and choose Copy.
4. Go back to the game folder and Paste:
   • a folder named like modSomething goes inside the Mods folder (if there is no Mods folder yet, create one with exactly that name);
   • if the mod comes with its own Mods, bin or dlc folders, paste those straight into the game folder so they merge with the existing ones.
5. Start the game. If a mod doesn't show up, check the install notes on its Nexus page. Some mods need an extra step (for example a menu file or Script Merger), and those steps are the same as on PC.

If The Witcher 3 wasn't installed through Steam inside DroidDeck (for example you added the game files yourself), say where it came from and I can point you to the right folder.

Wow this is much better but there is a slight problem

When I go from the game files to the downloads folder by clicking internal

I can't get back to the game files

Is there any way I can get back to the game files so I can put the mods in ?

@Atreyu4920 yes, the file manager has a Return to start button for exactly this. When you open it from Game files, there's a return arrow icon (↵) in the top bar, to the right of the drive name and just before New folder. Tap it and you're back in The Witcher 3's folder.

So the whole flow is:

1. Game files → tap the drive name (Internal ▾) → open Download → select the mod folder → Copy.
2. Tap ↵ (Return to start) → you're back in the game folder.
3. Open Mods (create it if it doesn't exist) → Paste.

Two things to keep in mind:

• Don't close the file manager between Copy and Paste. It only remembers the copied files while it stays open.
• The phone's Back gesture also works: it goes back through the folders you visited, in order. The ← arrow at the top left is different: it only goes up one folder on the current drive, so it can't take you from Internal back to the game.

I don't see it

Here is a screen shot

This is what I'm seeing on my screen and don't see the return icon

I am on 0.6.0
