That's your downloads folder, where Vortex keeps the zips/rars/7zs/etc of the mods you've downloaded. It's only what you've downloaded, not what's actually installed and active -- and not what we're looking for. 4 hours ago, Blinkybubs said: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\Data has all the abbreviated esp. (s) That will be what's installed, but not necessarily what's active -- and it won't tell us at all what order those are loaded in. (Though what do you mean by "abbreviated esp(s)"?) Continuing... 16 hours ago, 7531Leonidas said: Try C:/Users/(Your Username)/AppData/Roaming/Vortex/skyrimse/profiles. Look for the most recently used profile, if you have more than one. There are two .txt files in mine, a loadorder.txt, and a plugins.txt. The loadorder.txt seems to be aligned with the load order in my Vortex plugins tab. I say 'seems', because I didn't check my 1500+ mod list line by line... Most likely do this ↑. (Though maybe replace the /'s with \'s -- ...\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\skyrimse\profiles\.) Otherwise, look in ...\AppData\Local\Skyrim Special Edition\ -- if Vortex works how I think it does,* then that might have the plugins.txt that's actually being loaded into the game.** * Again, I'm not a Vortex user, and I'm not willing to mess with a working game/mod installation by experimenting with Vortex. So I could be wrong here. ** It may or may not have your loadorder.txt from your active Vortex profile -- which shouldn't matter to us anyway. loadorder.txt is only used by mod managers, not the game itself. It's a way for a mod manager to control the order of inactive plugins as well as active ones -- so plugins won't drop to the bottom of your mod manager's list after you deactivate them, in case you want to re-activate them later.

Thx, Aaron - I get the keys mixed up all of the time. Corrected in the post, now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm used to using both in file paths, from many years of DOS and Windows and DOSBox (on the \ side), almost as many years of the web (on the / side), and 8 years of Android and 4 of Linux (also on the / side). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinkybubs Posted June 7 Author Share Posted June 7 I'm not really familiar with winrar, I tried to compress the list, thought I had but it loaded as loose files and was to big to attach here. How do I attach the list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinkybubs Posted June 7 Author Share Posted June 7 Yeah the zip thinks I'm trying to extract everything rather than attach the zip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinkybubs Posted June 9 Author Share Posted June 9 I'm not finding those files nor paths anywhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7531Leonidas Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 If you are running Windows, those file paths are there, but you have to enable the 'Hidden items' in the menu ribbon 'View' selection. Open up your directory for your C drive, double-click on the 'Users' folder. Select the folder with your user name, and you should now see the 'AppData' folder. Inside that folder, you should see three choices, Local, LocalLow, and Roaming. That is where you will find the Vortex files and folders in the last part of the file path.

I think you can still type in the folder path too, near the top of the file explorer. (Though Windows 7 was the last version I used regularly, so I don't remember what's changed.)

Blinkybubs Posted June 9 Author Share Posted June 9 I think that is the issue, this is a new computer and the directory is organized differently than my old win7 computer. I'll keep looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
