Has anyone gotten downloads to work?

How does it fail?
Ideally have Vortex running before you start a download. Then make sure you have the "Handle download buttons" toggle in Settings->Download enabled.

Then start a download from nexus. Depending on what mod you're downloading you get a pop up that either says "download will start..." or one with dependencies where you have to click download again.

Then you should be getting a windows notification in the bottom right saying that the download started and shortly after Vortex should be downloading.

Where does it fail? Do you get the notification?

I'm getting the same issue. I have Firefox set handle NMM links in Vortex instead of the old Nexus Mod Manager. I have Vortex set in downloads to handle "Mod Manager Download" buttons on NexusMods.com. I click on the link on the page, vortex opens & ,....... NOTHING! No downloading at all. I've even set a custom download path to D:\Games\Nexus Mods Vortex\ to see if that was the issue & Nope. Still not working. Does it matter if I still have the old Nexus Mod Manager installed? I'm afraid to get rid of it because I cant do half of what I could on NMM with this Vortex crap. You can't even change load order manually. s*** product so far. :mad:

I can manually download a file using a premium site but can not download at all using the mod manager button. It started yesterday and I was on NMM so I downloaded Vortex and set everything up and it still will not download directly to Vortex. Vortex just says download failed so it is trying to download to Vortex. NMM was giving me a CDN time out message yesterday. This is getting frustrating especially since I'm starting over with Vortex and cant play the game right now. I can download them manually but then it isnt tied to Nexus for update messages for each mod. For some reason even though I set my preference to a premium download site witch works on manually download it still tries to download trough CDN on the mod manager link.. East Tn, Chrome and firefox same problem.
