It's not all of the time but it does get a tad bit annoying.

I wouldn't worry about it, it won't affect the game in any way as long as only the one version you want is enabled. If you send in a feedback with "Application State" attached (there is a button for that on the feedback screen) we should be able to figure out why they aren't grouped and can potentially improve the detection.

I'll drop a mod in the "drop file(s) here" which therefore will do its thing and process the mod for installation. When that part is done, i'll typically go straight to enable which does the install/enable process. The 2nd "dupe" shows in the original "not installed" state. I try to remove that extra but it won't do anything unless i "delete archive". Now after doing that, i was curious and took that mod package and put it back in the archive directory and "behold" it shows back up in vortex as "not installed". The first time i had this happen, i went about like normal and found that everything is okie-dokie.

@Tannin42, what do you mean by sending a feedback with "application state" attached? If i do, what would/should i classify it as then... a bug report? I tried to send a feedback report as you suggested but it won't let me as it says my version is outdated. I used 2.1.16 which was released on 6/10/2020/

Sorry if it seems like i'm somewhat repeating things but i'm just making sure that i have my thought right. If that makes any sense.
