Corrupted Data After Trying to Add Mods for Baldur's Gate 3

[ZarexJaeger]

For some stupid reason after I try to launch the game normally after removing all the mods from Vortex, the launcher now says there is corrupted/missing data for the game. What do I do?

Verify your game files in Steam.

I did. I also did a clean install, still running into the same issue

Can you post a screenshot of the error you are getting please?

What does 'open file list' show? This was caused, at least for me, by using a mod that was outside of the normal Mods folder.

It didn't cause a problem in my case but the game has found files that wouldn't normally be there on a clean install.

It does nothing, only the "open data folder" works

If your purge mods from Vortex (which will remove them from the game folder), and then run the game, does it still do it ? It's safe to do so, just deploy after you've done this test and it will copy them back.

I did delete everything for BG3 off of Vortex, and I still get this. I'll get it installed back on there and just deploy it without adding anything then?

Quick update: Skipped over the launcher

Do you get to the bottom of what files were hanging around?
