RandomDeadGuy Posted June 23, 2024 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.

RandomDeadGuy Posted June 23, 2024 Author 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.
