Screen pic(s) may help a bit.
I presume this is a recent occurence. Doing any mucking about prior to it misbehaving, i.e. with the file system?
Does ModSwap indicate that CC3 (CoI) is installed when you launch it? (Radio Buttons where it says Installed Mods). If it detects CoI is installed, the CC3 Radio Button should be selected automatically. If not, then it would indicate something screwy with either the Registry or the CoI installation, or both.
ModSwap also saves the state in a variety of places, such as in CCModSwap.ini, and in CCModSwapBackup Folders, and InstalledMods Folder, so any changes to these outside of ModSwap could cause issues.
How do you mean 'select the cc3 files'?

Could it be the CC3 Version of WF and not the CoI Version?
Can't tell from that pic whether what ModSwap has detected, but from a vanilla install it is hard to believe that the basic setup isn't ok, so next possibility will be the Plugin itself.
If it is the CoI WF Plugin, where did you D/L from so I can see if it does the same on my setup.

Before when it was working correctly i would select install and be able to see all my mods in the list. Now it is is empty I have to select Files Type: Close Combat 3 Mod Files (*.cc3) at the bottom of mod swap to be able to view/select them all.
I get the same error for all of my COI mods. I was installing and uninstalling the same mods without a problem before. I have reinstalled COI twice since and modswap. Still giving me the error.

Did you apply the COI patch after installing?

Yes thanks, I get the error regardless. I have tried before installing the patch, get error, and install the patch, still get the error.

C:\program files\Close Combat\Close Combat III\CC3.exe
No problem with exe location.
I was thinking anti virus could be the culpret so i checked that, and it did list CC.exe as a potential hazard but it wasnt quarentined or action taken. Just detected and listed by my anti virus program as a possible threat. I took it a step further and turned off my antivirus and reinstalled everything again.
when tried to install any mod or campaign i still got:
CCModSwap Error: This mod requires Close Combat 3. You must install CC3 before you can use this mod.

When I installed the new patch I forgot and left WF in. So I uninstalled COI, reinstalled. And ever since I get the Error, even after reinstalling about 5 times now.

Sounds like you have remnants left in the registry or similar... a bit odd though as you would think you would see the reverse of what you report.
Question 1
Do you have a legitimate copy of CoI or did you get it from mooxe?

Here's a thought
navigate to
C:\Program Files\Close Combat\Close Combat III\instmods.ini
open with notepad
Does it look like this- below
[InstalledMods]
[ExclusiveFiles]
