Issue with mods regarding clean installs

[EAF97 142]

I've been having issues when installing mods, particularly regarding when I've uninstalled and re-installed the KOTOR games. Whenever I do that, the game's files just seem to be a copy of whatever they were prior to me uninstalling the game. This is particularly a nuisance with 2da files as they will still have the altered coding in them prior to when the game was uninstalled for some reason. I tried flat-out deleting all game files manually before uninstalling the game itself and then re-extracting fresh versions of the 2da files from Kotor Tool and still got the same result with the 2das not giving me fresh versions but instead with all the altered coding from before.

Is there a way to fix this?

Still subscribed to the Steam Workshop version of TSLRCM? Its 2da files would get priority over ones in your main override folder.
