ChtulhuMan Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I've had vortex on my PC for a while using it frequently for fallout new Vegas than after the game crashed due to console commands and now my vortex won't open at all it just shows the Logo/ loading screen and never goes anywhere. IDK what to do i have deleted and re-downloaded the vortex file multiple times but the same issue always happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deleted34304850 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 your game crashing has no effect on vortex being able to start.i hate to say it but have you tried rebooting your machine rather than continually downloading and reinstalling vortex which, as you have seen, does nothing to help you.

ChtulhuMan Posted April 25, 2022 Author Share Posted April 25, 2022 I have tried restarting my PC multiple times as well but it is always the same issue, also when NV crashed i turned off my PC improperly the only thing affected seemed to be vortex.

rmm200 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Some things to try: 1) Check your hard disk for errors2) Use Task Manager to look for running instances of Vortex. End them.3) Validate your Windows installation: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/using-system-file-checker-in-windows-365e0031-36b1-6031-f804-8fd86e0ef4ca4) Don't delete Vortex - uninstall it through Windows.

I was suggesting try the custom installer location one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
