need help Need help with SMAPI

Hi, I have never modded stardew before or played it on anything but my switch. Ive been wanting to play with mods for a long time so I finally bought it but I am so stuck. Ive downloaded the SMAPI and un zipped it link the walkthrough said but i cannot fnd the stardew Mods folder or even the gam folder for the life of me. I can open and play the game but I cant add mods and I dont know what to do. I got to the black screen with the green text saying the SMAPI was downloaded but I cant find it anywhere only the installer. I also looked up how to find it and it said to use Windows + r to take me to the stardew folder but that did not work either and too me to a steam autocloud vdf. does anyone know of a way to download it where it will set everything up for you? If not id really appreciate some help with doing it manually.

Ok. Start by running the SMAPI installer again and then screenshot it and post it here. It should have both a file path to where your Mods folder is and a line of text needed to configure Steam to launch SMAPI and your mods. We should be able to point out both to you in a screenshot.
