DarkDominion Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 do not use Vortex as admin, that's so wrong in many ways.... to summarize :- I open up Vortex, it says it has an update ( BETA )- I update clicking the update in the notice bar- Vortex closes.- Vortex updates.- vortex.exe lost- Go to github to get vortex.exe- use .exe, all is good Happens in 0.15.1 and 0.15.2 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------Win 10 64bitVortex installed in D: drive ( where steam is located too )Mods and Archive from Vortex also installed on D: drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 do not use Vortex as admin, that's so wrong in many ways.... That's the only way it will run for me.If I uncheck "Run as Admin" I just get the Vortex Logo hanging forever on my screen and I have to kill the entire process tree.

Grestorn Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 What kind of virus scanner are you using? Does Vortex have free access to your user path (AppData) and subdirectories? To the pathes you‘ve set for the game? Does this happen if you change to another active game and restart Vortex without admin rights? What does the Vortex log say? Can you use SystemMonitor and check what's happening when you start it without admin rights? What you're encountering is certainly not normal and you seem to be the only one affected. So what we have to do is to figure out, what's different in your particular setup. And for that we need all the infos you could provide. Just saying 'it doesn't work' is not helping.

Tannin42 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 This is a duplicate of https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/6687332-updating-to-vortex-0151/ , why are you keeping it alive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDominion Posted June 12, 2018 Author Share Posted June 12, 2018 @HadToRegister: that has nothing to do with this problem. Tannin42 already told me not to run as administrator @ Grestorn: 1)Vortex can write logs into my user path. Next!2)Admin right are irrelevant, also: THIS IS ABOUT UPDATING VORTEX !!! NEXT!3)THIS IS ABOUT UPDATING VORTEX !!! NEXT!4)Where did I say : It doesn't work? I was very detailed in describing my issues Did you even read what the problem was ? @ Tannin42:No, it is not, but since we are on the subject : that topic is about a very different problem...So, care to tell me why I do not have a vortex.exe in my D:\vortex folder after updating ? Again, this happens :to summarize :- I open up Vortex, it says it has an update ( BETA )- I update clicking the update in the notice bar- Vortex closes.- Vortex updates.- vortex.exe lost- Go to github to get vortex.exe- use .exe, all is good Happens in 0.15.1 and 0.15.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannin42 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 And how is that different from the other report? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grestorn Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 @DarkDominion: I was actually referring to HardToRegister's "Run as Admin" issue, whose posting I was directly answering to, and not to your update issue. Admittedly, my reply ended up in the wrong thread, for which I'm sorry. But I don't appreciate being shouted at. That's why this will be my last answer to you.
