Managing File Conflicts - Can't Change Mod Used

[Duckwise]

When I try to change which mod provides a certain file by managing file conflicts, I can't seem to select the mod other than the default (check screenshot). Clicking on the non-default mod that I want to use doesn't do anything. I looked up an example of someone changing the used mod through the file conflict manager, and they seemed to be able to switch mods just fine. Is there something preventing me from changing the preferred mod?

Same here... wth is this weird bug!?

UPDATE:

I managed to solve this by uninstalling, then reinstalling the mod who's file conflicts Vortex wouldn't let me set so that another mod would win the conflicts.

After reinstalling the mod, it brought up the conflicts dialogue again, and I was able to set the other mod to win all conflicts.

So I downgraded Vortex to version 1.11.3 and it fixed the problem.

(When I tried 1.11.7 it still had it, so somewhere after 1.11.3 this bug was introduced).

So I can confirm that downgrading Vortex completely solves this issue.

Pretty big oversight from the developers. Hopefully this can get a hotfix in the near future.
