Hi, I'm new to both Nexus and Vortex and tried deploying a FO4 collection, but on launching the game, it looked identical to vanilla. I then found this error in the Vortex log, and tried searching the forum, but found no solution. It appears Vortex is trying to do an illegal linking operation between separate partitions (download folder in C and game install folder in D)? Is there anyway to change the Vortex download location to the same drive where the game is installed? I could try to copy the files manually, but not sure what the linking thing is about. Or am I totally on the wrong track? Thanks in advance for your help! DETAILS BELOW Problem: Deployment failed of 7k files during install of a mod collection. Vanilla game appears un-modded. Vortex version 1.10.8 OS & Security: Win 11 Home with Defender with default settings. Log file attached but a single instance of the error is at the bottom-- the log file contains 7k of these same "linking not allowed" errors-- it appears all files in the collection failed to deploy. Game is installed in D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Fallout Downloaded mods appeared to have gone to: 'C:\Users\heyfg\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\fallout4\mods Vortex is installed in default location "C:\Program Files\Black Tree Gaming Ltd\Vortex" FIRST LINE OF ERROR LOG. warn: failed to link link=textures\actors\character\eyes\TheEyesOfBeauty\HumanEyesNightBlue.dds, source=The Eyes of Beauty Fallout Kaleidoscope Edition - All-in-One-133-3-2, error=EXDEV: cross-device link not permitted, link 'C:\Users\heyfg\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\fallout4\mods\The Eyes of Beauty Fallout Kaleidoscope Edition - All-in-One-133-3-2\textures\actors\character\eyes\TheEyesOfBeauty\HumanEyesNightBlue.dds' -> 'D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data\textures\actors\character\eyes\TheEyesOfBeauty\HumanEyesNightBlue.dds' vortex4.log
