Suppressed Notifications on Vortex


Keulron

Recommended Posts

At some point in the last 48 hours, Vortex decided to suppress two of my notifications, specifically file conflicts and missing masters notifications from what I can tell. It allows me to "reset" the notifications, which brings the suppressed counter to zero, but this has not actually affected the program and they revert if I restart it. This is my only notification setting for the manager, and its messed up the game that I'm attempting to modify. How would I go about fixing this permanently, and how would I prevent it from happening again?

Edit: I've been looking all over and cannot find anyone or anything else having ever had this problem before somehow. Am I just missing something? The error won't even go away when I switch what game I want worked on. Also including screenshots of what I mean.

The "two notifications being suppressed" thing happened a while ago and shows immediately on a brand new install on a brand new computer.  It seems to be a bug of some sort and doesn't indictate actual notifications you've chosen to suppress.

The real problem is that some notifications that can be suppressed aren't actually covered by that option in settings at all and can't be turned back on.  One example I can think of is the warning that comes up when you purge mods.  Once you say "don't show again" you don't have the opportunity to reverse it.

Strange, I had not heard of that. These two notifications seemed to line up though, as when I reset them the first time it actually did fix it (something I forgot to mention first time around), which is what led me to assume a correlation.
Edit: I believe I am going to attempt a fresh installation of Vortex regardless, just to see if it can potentially reset the issue with the real notifs.

Try resetting your notification settings and checking for updates. If that doesn’t help, reinstalling Vortex might fix any underlying issues.  When my final essay deadline was creeping up, I was completely stuck. Luckily, I found academized.com/write-my-essay I had a great experience! The writer was knowledgeable about the topic and really helped me understand how to improve my own writing. The process was smooth, and I received my essay on time. Definitely a good service for students who are pressed for time.

Any update? I am also facing the same issue.

Edit: Are you asking from me?

Hi there, the file conflicts and missing masters notifications will never be suppressed by core Vortex functionality; community extensions however can potentially cause that. Although I doubt any extension developers would decide to do that, can you guys give me a list of 3rd party extensions you have installed?

Also please specify the version of Vortex you're using.

The number of suppressed notifications isn't a relevant indicator, given that many game extensions may suppress some of their notifications based on the version of the game itself. e.g. Starfield will suppress the ASI loader notification past a certain game version. If Vortex increments the number of suppressed notifications on its own - that's the game extension doing it explicitly.
