Maybe I can help you out.
You need the latest
SMAPI version. From here, you have two different options:
1.
Steam: Copy and paste this "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command% your Stardew Valley Launch Options on Steam, which you can find under properties:
View attachment 17693
(Note: If you want to play vanilla SV, you can delete this, which lets you play the vanilla version.)
2. Launch StardewModdingAPI.exe, which should be in the SMAPI folder.
That should do the trick.
I do have SMAPI though, and I just tested both running through Steam using the redirected path, and through launching SMAPI.exe directly. Didn't work either time
In case it helps, this is the full text in the SMAPI window
