Can't move Staging Folder to new drive

[jthrongard]

I am attempting to move my Skyrim SE install to my new M.2 drive. Everything migrated perfectly except Vortex. I was able to change the download directory to the new drive but NOT my Staging Folder. When I start with an empty folder the move hangs at about 50% (gave it 10 hours). If I manually move the files with Win Explorer it takes about 5 minutes but Vortex says the directory must be empty if I then change the Mod Staging Folder to the new drive.

 

Can't use Vortex unless I can get this issue addressed.
