How to Install Minecraft Mods
How to Install Minecraft Mods
This wikiHow teaches you how to install a modification (or "mod") for Minecraft on both desktop and mobile versions of Minecraft. Keep in mind that Windows 10 and console editions of Minecraft cannot be modded.
Steps

On Desktop

Install Minecraft Forge. Minecraft Forge is a free add-on for the Java edition of Minecraft. With Minecraft Forge installed, you can run mods. You won't be able to install Minecraft Forge if you're using the Windows 10-exclusive edition of Minecraft.

Download a mod. If you don't already have the mod file that you want to install, open a Minecraft mod website and download the one you want to use. Commonly used mod sites include the following: https://www.minecraftmods.com/ https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods https://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding-java-edition/minecraft-mods https://www.planetminecraft.com/resources/mods/

Extract the mod file if necessary. If your mod file downloaded in a ZIP folder, open the folder, then click Extract, click Extract all, and click Extract when prompted. On a Mac, just double-click the ZIP folder to extract and open the mod's folder.

Copy the mod file. Open the mod folder's individual folders until you find the ".jar" file for the mod, then click the ".jar" file and press either Ctrl+C (Windows) or ⌘ Command+C (Mac). On a Mac, the ".jar" file resembles a cup of coffee on a white background.

Open the Minecraft launcher. Double-click the Minecraft app icon, which resembles a grassy block of dirt.

Click Launch options. This tab is in the upper-right side of the window.

Click Latest release. It's in the middle of the window.

Open your Minecraft installation folder. Click the green, right-facing arrow on the far-right side of the "Game directory" section to do so. This will open the folder in which Minecraft stores its files.

Open the "mods" folder. Find and double-click the "mods" folder in the middle of the window. If you don't see a "mods" folder here, create one by doing the following: Windows — Right-click a blank space in the folder, select New, click Folder, type in mods, and press ↵ Enter. Mac — Click a blank space in the folder, click File, click New Folder, type in mods, and press ⏎ Return.

Paste in the mod. Click a blank space in the folder, then press either Ctrl+V (Windows) or ⌘ Command+V (Mac). You should see the mod file appear inside the "mods" folder.

Play your mod. Once your mod file appears inside the "mods" folder, you can proceed with loading it in a Minecraft Singleplayer game: Switch from Minecraft to Minecraft Forge by clicking the arrow next to PLAY and then clicking forge in the pop-up menu. Click PLAY Wait for Forge to load. Click Singleplayer Select a world. Click Play Selected World
