Muddbutt Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Whenever I try to launch Fallout 4 a prompt open up and says, " Vortex needs to access (LOCK file) but its open in another application." How do I get past this. -Muddbutt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickysaurus Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Make sure Vortex is fully closed (i.e. check Task Manager) Once it is, browse to the location of the file mentioned in the error and delete it. You should be able to start Vortex again after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddbutt Posted January 7 Author Share Posted January 7 I tried, it doesnt start at boot up. It happens because Fallout 4 is on drive E and not C where vortex is. I have some games on C and E. So when I apply the fix for "Moving mod staging folder" it gets to the very end and that error pops up. I did try deleting the file (LOCK) but it didnt work. Anybody else have this problem. If I had more space on C I would move it but I dont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
