I have tried installing and uninstalling Vortex and every time I finish installing it, and launch it for the first time, it gives me an error that looks like this: 

 

I don't know what to do. I've tried installing on a different SSD and installing slightly older versions of vortex. The only thing I saw online mentioned a paranoid checker but I don't know why I would have to use that to get this to work.

Honestly, I've never seen this error before so I'm not entirely sure what it means. 

I suspect either Vortex is corrupt or your state file is corrupted. 

If you've tried reinstalling Vortex I suggest attempting to rename the folder at %appdata%\Vortex to something else and see if the app starts up. If it does your state (where Vortex stores its data) has been corrupted. This is usually by something outside the app messing with the file, or your PC being forcefully powered down while Vortex was writing to the database.
