I can't deploy mods because it's saying that Hardlink Deployment is not available because it can't write to the output directory. Both Oblivion and Vortex are installed on internal hard drives, and it started doing this out of nowhere. I've given the proper permissions so it can work. Closing Vortex lets it work, but only once.

The game and the mod staging folder must be on the SAME DRIVE to use Vortex with this game. You said hard drives (plural), indicating they are not on the same drive.

Move the mod staging folder to the same drive as the game in the Vortex settings.

Have same issue in spite of both paths being on the same drive.

Are they on NTFS-formatted partitions?

What is the full error message? Opening up that notification will tell you why each deployment method cannot be used. What is the stated reason why Hardlinks cannot be used?

Installed on the same hard drive. Bit of a misspeak on my part.

Deployment method "Hardlink Deployment" not available because: Can't write to output directory.

I can't change it in options when that happens either.
