Not switching games.

[bjlambert]

So while trying to switch games on Vortex, I click on activate and it asks what profile I want to load, so I click the only option available which is Default, and it takes me to a screen that says Switching to Profile: Default. After about 15 seconds a grey bar appears below and above it says Stuck? Please check your vortex.log file. It never goes past this screen and switches to the game I want to manage. I have checked everything. It all appears to be up to date. I have logged out and back in multiple times. Went down stairs and made a delicious sandwich and when I come back, still switching. Has anyone else experienced this and know how to fix it?

Which two games are you swapping between? Is one of them RDR2?

Try restarting Vortex, running as admin, or reinstalling the software.

Hi there, the RDR2 game extension has a deployment blocker in place which expects user interaction through a raised notification. When switching profiles, the notification is not visible.

You have three options:

1. Activate the RDR2 profile, select deploy and interact with the notification that pops up so that the deployment event completes, then switch to the other game.

2. Switch to the beta update channel and use Vortex 1.14.0-beta.2 which will no longer allow game extensions to block the deployment event when switching profiles.

3. Delete/Disable the RDR2 game extension through Vortex's extensions page.

This applies to GTA5 too btw.
