Techwitch1 Posted July 25 Posted July 25 Instance variances in Vortex are preventing me from purging files so that I can fix my mods issues. I am asked if I want to purge files because my previously used mods were saved with a different instance of Vortex. I click the button to purge, and, I get an Error saying that Vortex cannot edit files in Steam which are write protected. What's going on here, and how do we fix this?

Techwitch1 Posted July 25 Author Posted July 25 I have a similar issue with CBBE being updated, and am afraid to do any of the other three mods... It's also not fixing IDs as a result of this purging thing, as well.
anjenthedog Posted July 25 Posted July 25 IDK, if you can't use purge, then maybe try uninstalling the errant mod instead. I have no idea of what one instance means wrt Vortex though, never ran multiple concurrent instances of Vortex, and frankly, I'm not sure I'd even know why one would do so, since it's a 'game' fraught with the likelihood of corrupting something, be it the game or Vortex data.
