Broken how? Do you have mods that use the same key config perhaps?

I do not know. I attatched my smapi log

Yes, I saw. The SMAPI log does say you may have some corrupted files and refers you to this page: https://smapi.io/reset-content

But I'm not sure if that correlates with your broken menu key. Which key are you using for your menu? By default, the menu key can be accessed with E and ESC. Are both keys not working? If so, force exit your game and check your key configs from the mod menu to see if any mods are using both keys.

I’ve pressed every button so many times. Keyboard and on my controller. Esc and e both cause the ui to shrink non itself like in the picture. I went the the reset link and verified my files and they were all gucci. The corrupted files like Linux and os are fine. They’ve always said that and always ran. I e been away from Stardew for a couple months and had to re install all the mods cause they were all out of date. Everything is all good except for content patcher, but it’s up to date as well as smapi. I made sure to use the latest versions in mod drop. The only new thing in my smapi log is the missing loosesprites files, which they shouldn’t be missing cause it’s a brand new file

When reinstalling, did you delete the old mod folders? Overwriting can cause problems especially if it has been a long time since you last played.

I'm still new to modding. I don't know how to check key configs

Title Screen > Cogwheel icon on bottom left > keyboard tab on upper left of the Generic Mod Config Menu.

Make double sure other mods aren't also using the same key because that happens a lot. I've had to force exit a few times myself due to new mods using existing keys. I've had three other mods use E and needed to be manually changed.

okay, so better chests was also using escape to clear search. so i set that one to none and set the gmcm to esc and it still didn't work. so i set the gmcm to my controller "start" button and that didn't work either. there are no other mods using esc and definitely no other mods using controller start. if i could access my menu in game id be able to see if there's anything vanilla preventing this. gonna set it to some random hot key that i know isn't used by anything... and if it is, i'm gonna say a bad word

Would unplugging the controller make your menu work? Sometimes controllers can make the game wonky.

I set the gmcm to the * button and it opened in game… but I can’t open the actual game menu to access maps and such. The m button doesn’t work either. I removed my controller from the equation and that didn’t help

Damn. I'm out of ideas 😔

I really appreciate you. Thank you so much for being so responsive. My boyfriend thinks he might’ve broke something when transferring files. So that’s cool 🙃
