Microsoft .NET - Check Failed (Vortex 1.6.7)

[xxXLink50Xxx]

 

 

 

Hi, I'm having .NET issues as well after updating, but I'm seeing a different window:

I've tried both links and the CMD Repair method with no change. Reverting Vortex to 1.5.13 works.

 

If it helps, here is my dotnet --info:

Edit: Disabling Sandbox in Settings did fix it, but my Program Files security window matches the screenshot above:

Not sure what the issue is...

 

 

EDIT #2 - Figured it out.

I have my default install path set to my E drive (via the registry), so DotNet was installing to E:\Program Files instead of C:\Proram Files. I had to add "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES" and the aforementioned permissions, and now the error is gone without the workaround in place.

 

Leaving this here in case it helps someone else with this very specific issue. :smile:

Can you elaborate on how you were able to do this? Because the only thing working for me is disabling the sandbox, and my Program Files Properties are the same in the previous post. Still getting the access denied thing with certain mods just not installing. So far this thread is the only thing that has gotten me anywhere.

 

 

Sure. Open a Command Prompt window, and type "dotnet --info". This should list the runtimes you have installed and their locations, hopefully all in a single Program Files folder. You can see this in my second screenshot above.

 

Next, find that Program Files folder (in my case, E:\Program Files), right click on it, Properties, Security tab.

Click on Advanced, then Change Permissions on the new window that opens. Click on Add, then Select a Principal, and type "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES" into the bottom box. Then Check Names to confirm it's typed correctly. Click ok, and it'll return to that previous window. Make sure to hit Apply here before hitting Ok. It'll apply the change to everything in that folder, though some items may fail, which is fine.

Hopefully this screenshot explains the process well enough (ignore the fact that there's 2 locations, I just had to open a couple Properties windows to get it all in one shot).

 

In case someone reads this that's using a non-English version of Windows, yours may not be called "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES". Look at the Properties > Security tab for C:\Program Files. and copy the name from there in that case.

Well that's just great... I AM using a non-English version of Windows and yes. it isn't called "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES"... because it does not exist.... neither on C or on D... so what am I supposed to do now. google isn't giving me any helpful results either sadly.

 

nevermind in the end we got there. Kinda. Now its spitting out a few errors as you said it would. and Setting savety informations.

AAAAAAND NOW WE GOT THIS ONE ON MOD INSTALLATION

Maybe look for how you say that in your native language?

Hello!

 

I'm having the same issues as tcutchi, with the dotnet being installed in D:/ProgramFiles and Vortex unable to find it (or so it seems).

I tried to follow the instructions on how to add permissions via the folder, Properties and Security tab, but I do not have a 'ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES' category to add, nor any category with that double page symbol that has.

All I have are the symbols with the two stylized people titled "Authenticated Users" "SYSTEM", "Admin" and "User" that is also shown in tcutchi's screenshot, below the 'ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES' category.

 

Do I need to create the 'ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES' category, and if so, how do I make sure it adds the right permissions and/or paths for Vortex to find the right path to the D:/ProgramFiles folder?

Do you see ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES when you look at the properties for C:/Program files?

 

What version of Windows are you on?

Keep in mind there is no list to choose from, as I wrote you will need to type that in after clicking Add, and using Check Names to confirm.

 

There is a way to force .NET to install to the C drive, but it involves a registry edit, which if done incorrectly can cause severe issues as you would be changing what Windows considers the "main" Program Files location back to C, and then installing .NET. I've had to change it temporarily to address a different but possibly related issue with another program.

What am I doing wrong?

Did exactly what you did and all it did was resolve my PREVIOUS problem where I couldn't get into vortex AT ALL without the "fix button loop"

I still get that ModInstallerPC error though.

Guys, if you follow the instructions in the pinned thread, the approach using icacls on the command line uses IDs. With that approach your system language doesn't matter.

Luckily I have a full backup of my system with an earlier version of Vortex on it. If this doesn't get fixed somehow soon, it'll mean hours of Fallout 4 game time lost.

You are a life saver man! This has solved my problem, my computer is new I just got it and it seems not all system are updated to the latest?

Anyway thank you, and also thanks to the people who take the time to answer on this forum you are amazing! :D

My solution was to check the DOTNET environment variable, which in my case was incorrect.

To check the variable in CMD use the command:

echo %DOTNET_ROOT%

It must match the path shown using the command:

dotnet --info.

Example in my case dotnet --info indicates that it is in c:\program files\dotnet

We can change the path of this variable using the command:

setx DOTNET_ROOT "C:\Program Files\dotnet" /m

I hope it is understood

how about you fix you garbage program instead?

It's Microsoft's program that is causing the problem.

I just solved the problem for me and wasted 100 hours on this so i hope it helps someone...

 

1. Download the .NET Version detector (( https://sumtips.com/software/detect-all-installed-net-framework-versions/ ))

 

2. Run it and inspect the window. It shows witch version is installed and if there is an problem.

 

3. If you get the same error listed like me :

"Failed to load the dll from [C:\Program Files\~~~~\hostfxr.dll], HRESULT: 0x800700C1 The library hostxr.dll was found, but loading it from C:\Program Files\~~~~\hostfxr.dll failed"

then google the solution that helps on your System. :sick:

 

I installed the .NET Framework 4.8 offline installer, refreshed my .NET Version Detector and my problem was resolved and not listed anymore, rebooted my system, opened Vortex and no error message popped up.

 

Please if someone tries to resolve the problem with the help of my guide then it would help others to make some adjustments and check what or when the error is fixed in order to get a more easy and better guide becouse my english is terrible. Hope it helps somehow....
