Why aren't my Addons working anymore :(

I was wondering if anyone could help me try get my addons to work again. Up until 2 weeks ago everything was fine, had no problems whatsoever. Then when the Ts & Cs update happened my addons just stopped working. It auto turned them off when greymoor launched so i thought that might have been the issue but the entire folder is just completely empty.

I asked on the ESO university discord and people suggested it might have been a onedrive sync so I unistalled onedrive and even copied all the eso folders contents into the onedrive/ documents directory.

Other things I've tried are:
Repairing ESO using https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/6486/~/what-do-i-do-if-i-get-error-209-patchmanifesterror_versionfail?
Re-installing ESO, Minion and Steam twice
Running them as an admin
Redownloading all addons with and without minion.
Updating and Disabling my firewall
Updating my PC driver
Updating Windows 10
Updating the GeForce Apps

If anyone knows any other ways to update the addon folder location it would be greatly appreciated :) because I can't seem to figure it out.

    I'm confused.

    Are your add-ons in the appropriate folder in Documents and ESO just isn't recognizing them?

    Or is the add-on folder in Documents empty?

    Yeah exactly, they're in the same folder that they were in when they were working and ESO just stopped recognizing them.

    Like the "Add-ons" tab in game is completely empty even with the "Allow out of date add-ons" box checked

    The only instance I've heard of where this sort of thing has happened has been where the player has had more than one game installation and ESO got confused about which addon folder to use. I'm not sure this will be helpful to you.
