haromass Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I'm having the same issue. I just finished building my pc and got vortex after getting skyrim downloaded and vortex wont even open for me. I will say this though, uninstall your vortex and download an older version, it worked for a day for me but now won't open at all. I'm looking for another workaround since the devs can't even answer this question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyc2a Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I also have the exact same problem described by OP with latest version (v0.16.10). It appears in task list briefly, then disappears, and never starts. This was a new install (just started playing FO4 again, just cuz). So I tried the version just prior to the newest version (which is v0.16.05), and it worked fine. But then I came in today and it won't start, same problem as w 16.10. I'm thinking it must have auto updated to 0.16.10, and now its just the same problem. Not to be capn obvious, but this is a fairly significant problem. I will try to reinstall 16.05 and disable auto update if I can. I'm new to vortex and don't fully know it yet. But I definitely liked it yesterday when it was working.

tonyc2a Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 ok so quick update, installing the prior version (16.05) seems to have fixed the issue and it successfully kept all my settings and mods intact....or at least it appears to have for now. i couldn't find a setting to prevent auto updates, but there was a little notification popup in the upper right (asking to install newest version), which I dismissed. If it still auto updates for some reason, then I will have to reinstall 16.05 every time I run the app. this might be the best short term fix. btw, this is all with the normal version, not the custom installation location version.

Yeah somethings wrong with version 16.10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
