XImpossibruX Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 (edited) I'm trying to download the mod manager Vortex from the site: https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/1?tab=files&file_id=2152 but when I click the download link all it get is a lull in the page and then a new page pops up saying: This site can’t be reachedfiles.nexus-cdn.com took too long to respond. I've tried: Using a different browserUsing incognito modeDisabling antivirusAllowing the site as an exception on the antivirus Disabling firewallDisabling Google Chrome extensions I've downloaded other mods from the site and just tested downloading one and it worked. Is it because i'm downloading an exe file? Beyond frustrating. Absolutely insane. Been going through the Troubleshooting options at https://help.nexusmods.com/article/113-troubleshooting-website-issues and nothing works. Country: CanadaISP: Primus The download simply isnt starting.. Edited July 12, 2023 by XImpossibruX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showler Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Hm, I wonder if my being Premium means I'm getting a different server?
