Manlypink69 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 So to keep the topic short and sweet, Earlier tonight probably an hour ago give or take, I was playing Old Skyrim (Not SSE) with Mods, and was launching from Vortex just fine. However when I went to update the program, after the update, Launching Skyrim from Vortex didn't work at all. I've tried reinstalling the program, turning off all my mods, and restarting/updating my computer to no avail.Any support would be nice and I'll be happy to do whatever I need to do to solve the problem, thanks in advanced :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmm200 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 You don't need to launch from Vortex; Vortex does not even need to be running.Stop Vortex.Try launching the game from the game directory. What happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manlypink69 Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 @RMM200 It launches just fine from the game directory (and also through Steam) and SKSE also launches just fine as well :)It's just a bit strange cause launching from Vortex was working fine, then it wasn't.

rmm200 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 OK - that narrows it down a lot. Best part is - you can keep playing. We better start here: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/7332636-how-to-post-request-support-for-vortex/ Either Vortex has a bad path to your game - or one of the recent elevation issues got you. Probably the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glamourcat28 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I'm having the exact same issue. I launch Skyrim through the SKSE plugin through vortex and after the last update it no longer launches at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I'm having the exact same issue. I launch Skyrim through the SKSE plugin through vortex and after the last update it no longer launches at all. Check to see if your SKSE_Loader.exe, Skyrim.exe and SKyrimLauncher.exe are set to RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR. If they are, uncheck the box to run them as administrator. The problem seems to be stemming from people running EVERYTHING especially Games, as Administrator for no reason after you do that, see if they launch from Vortex.

Manlypink69 Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 That fixed my issue entirely.... I feel so dumb, yet thankful that it wasn't nothing serious. Thank you guys for the support, and sorry for wasting your time :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattchion Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 That fixed my issue entirely.... I feel so dumb, yet thankful that it wasn't nothing serious. Thank you guys for the support, and sorry for wasting your time :smile: I have this same issue with fallout 3, except it only applies to the very important FOSE loader link. Path is correct and I don't recall giving it permanent run as admin settings, but I'll double check. If your setup worked before the Vortex update and it broke now though...not really your fault. You did something you were used to doing to try and minimize headaches using mods and the program worked with it until it now doesn't. It's not unfair to request changes in behavior as long as it's to accommodate good code in Vortex, but you aren't what changed first here. This info was most helpful for HadToRegister to provide but since it's not in a prominent place on the Vortex dashboard when the app auto updates instead of sending you to Nexus, these sorts of threads will pop up. Maybe you're just being polite, but I wouldn't say you're wasting anyone's time. You may have just elicited clarification that will solve the issue I'm seeing too.

Mattchion Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 (edited) I'm having the exact same issue. I launch Skyrim through the SKSE plugin through vortex and after the last update it no longer launches at all. Check to see if your SKSE_Loader.exe, Skyrim.exe and SKyrimLauncher.exe are set to RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR. If they are, uncheck the box to run them as administrator. The problem seems to be stemming from people running EVERYTHING especially Games, as Administrator for no reason after you do that, see if they launch from Vortex. This doesn't work with FOSE on Fallout 3. I'm having a similar issue where Vortex has the correct path for FOSE and simply decided it can no longer use it. It will initially run, prompting a UAC notification as it did before, but once I click yes it just decides to not run FOSE instead of doing it like I assume it was seeking to. Turning off admin privileges for FOSE gets an error from FOSE, where it seems to think I'm running Vista instead of Windows 10 but regardless says it can't run properly because of UAC and that I must enable run as admin.
