    I.... accidently unpatched ETS2 from game manager. I thought it was a simple task to re-patch the game but it was not. I can't find the right patch path of ETS2. Here's what I did so far.

    1. Trying re-patch
    When I click 'Patch game', it requires ETS2 installation directory.
    ETS2 is installed in following path
    SteamLibrary - steamapps - common - Euro Truck Simulator
    But 'Euro Truck Simulator' folder was not the right path to patch
    (it says 'The selected path is not Valid for Patching')

    2. In Euro Truck Simulator folder there's 'bin' and in bin, there are 'win_x64' and 'win_x86'.
    I tried bin, x64 and x86 folders but the result were the same, didn't work.
    I checked where the exe file of ETS2, it was in win_x64 folder. But as you know that folder didn't work.

    3. Somebody advised me to remove simtools plugin from ETS2 folder, so I did (from both x64 and x86).
    Then tried to patch again but didn't work either.

    4. Updated ETS2 plugin using plugin updater. It says update is done but still... can't patch the game.


    Other games work great. I installed a new game just to see if patch would work and it did.
    Only ETS2 can't find the right path to patch...


    What should I do?
