RandomDeadGuy Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 Hello beautiful people. I'll keep this as short as I can. I chose to reinstall Vortex because it had trouble starting up. I heard that profiles and preferences were stored in "C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\", so I backed up this folder before re-installation of Vortex. Same issue as before, not starting up. That's okay. I found that Vortex will start successfully with a freshly generated "AppData\Roaming\Vortex\" folder OR if I delete "\Roaming\Vortex\state.v2\CURRENT" The real problem is now I have a fresh Vortex install, and none of my profiles or enabled SkyrimSE mods. How can I restore this information? Any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomDeadGuy Posted June 23, 2024 Author Share Posted June 23, 2024 Thank you so much! I confused the per-user and shared Vortex folders, and Vortex couldn't launch because the folders were set to read-only. (I may have launched as admin at least once) I also found this thread helpful: https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/Vortex/issues/5134 You're awesome. Thank you for your quick and knowledgeable reply.
