HadToRegister Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 You need to regain ownership of your Vortex folders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadToRegister Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 You'll need to take ownership of the C:\users\<USER NAME>\appdata\roaming\Vortex folder and all the files in it, and the C:\ProgramData\Vortex\ folder and probably the folder where you installed Vortex itself.I just had to do this a month or so ago, I have a forum thread on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
