zaFi03 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) A few days ago I tried upening up vortex version 1.13.5 and install a mod for skyrim se. Well, it shows the "VORTEX MOD MANAGER" window that only should appear for a few seconds before the actuall program is launched, but for me it just stays on that window. Basically Vortex never launches no matter how long I wait. In task manager it says 0% activity except for 25% memory usage. > tried new install location > tried older Vortex version > tried disabling antivirus > I did not update windows (I use win10 and it always worked just fine) and there are no new updates right now. Basially, no major changes were introduced to my PC that should have caused any issues, it.. just stopped working. I did what I could, but it seems like my journey with Vortex has come to an end. It's like my PC is rejecting this software. Has anyone had a similar experience ? I also get this in CMD when launching the Vortex.exe with --safe-mode Edited January 11 by zaFi03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clongwell3 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Same exact experience but it's on Windows 11. I see the app running in my taskbar but I can't alt tab to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickysaurus Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Errors like this tend to be broken .NET frameworks. Try the solution here: https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/Vortex/wiki/MODDINGWIKI-Users-Troubleshooting-NET-6-Install-Issues If that doesn't work, you could try going to %appdata%\Vortex and renaming that folder to something like "Vortex_backup". If it starts up after doing that Vortex's internal state has been corrupted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I continue using vortex like this or is there something alse I should do ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7531Leonidas Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 FWIW, I think that means that the appdata folder you renamed was corrupted or broken, and you can now safely delete that renamed folder. Get confirmation before you do, however, because I have never had to perform this procedure (yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
