Using different Vortex accounts on the same PC


Recommended Posts

My dad has been playing Skyrim through my Steam account and modding it through Vortex, all on my Windows user profile. The problem is that when he's playing Skyrim, I can't play any games on my account on my laptop, it tells me my account is in use. So he created his own Steam account, and I plan on doing the Steam family sharing thing with him so that I can play other games in my library while he's playing Skyrim.

My question is, if he launches Vortex from his Windows profile, will his mods show up? If not, how can he get them to?

Vortex config is per-user on Windows by default. You can also move the contents of %AppData%\Vortex to your dad's profile. You will need to try and keep the mod download and staging folders in the correct location though.
