Skinjack Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 I'm having a few issues with my Vortex today. It won't completely deploy the mods I just installed, stopping at about 1/3 the way on the bar and then just hanging. It will allow me to install simple mods without a FOMOD, but any FOMOD also hang. I just wanted to see if I can reinstall Vortex and maybe "fix" any corrupted files, etc, without it removing all of my mods. I have almost 1600 and it's taken me months to get my game to a semi-stable place where everything plays together nicely. Any ideas on what I should/can do? EDIT: I have closed Vortex, restarted my computer, and a few other minor things like disabling mods I just installed. I also have noticed I am getting two errors in the Diagnostic Files from the other night that are probably unrelated as they indicate bladeandsorcery was not discovered. I don't play that game and this worked fine yesterday. EDIT 2: Well, Vortex just crashed on me after about an hour of trying to deploy mods and gave me this: An unrecoverable error occurred. Corruption: not an sstable (bad magic number) at C:\Program Fies\Black Tree Gaming LTD\Vortex\resources\app.asar\node_modules\levelup\lib\levelup.js217:23. I have not updated Vortex since October, I believe, so this leads me to believe I have a corrupted file somewhere. Question is, what caused it and can I fix it by reinstalling without wiping out my mods? I did report the error and am waiting on a response. I just looked in the app.asar.unpacked\node_modules and I don't have a levelup folder. I have a leveldown. Not sure what that means so I guess I will wait.
Skinjack Posted January 8, 2022 Author Posted January 8, 2022 I just reinstalled Vortex after saving a few files. Same issue, but I did find an older article by Tannin saying it is most likely an outside source, like an antivirus. I haven't installed or updated anything except mods for the last week, so I guess I need to see if "they" did. Really annoying, now. EDIT: Well, I've done a few more things as advised on the Vortex Discord. Re-installed Vortex over the existing one. Disabled my antivirus. Changed my UAC. Gave the folders full permissions to read/write. Moved and moved back the staging folder to another drive. Made sure Vortex was whitelisted in my AV. Scanned the drives for errors. Purged and then tried to re-deploy, but it still wouldn't. The only thing I can think of is saving my staging folder and appdata and trying to do a complete uninstall/reinstall of Vortex, but I will wait on that until I get a response from the bug report. Maybe. I'm not known for my patience. :smile:
