morum Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 started using this yesterday, i am one of those that rarely restarts their computer.. noticed ( without vortex currently open ) many processes of vortex of about 135-160kb memory running in the task manager.. like around 4 dozen. i've executed the program and used it a lot since i just reinstalled FO4, so i'm thinking this is leaving processes it uses to detect status of mods or deploy open after the program is closed? windows 7 if it's relevant.

xualas Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Pretty much the same situation with me. Win7, just re-installed Fallout 4 and decided to have a look at Vortex. Haven't done much more with it than downloading mods and figuring out the interface so far, but that's beside the point. Opened Task Manager to check on things (I'm paranoid, so I do that a lot) and saw there are 77 instances of Vortex.exe. It doesn't appear that any of them are actually working the CPU, and they're all practically identical when it comes to memory use (>50K~<200K private working / ~1160K commit). Dunno if that extra bit of info is relevant, but might as well mention it.Edit: Upon further investigating, it looks like everything works as I assume is intended until something gets downloaded.-I can open and close Vortex numerous times without anything being left behind.-I can swap between Fallout 4 and Skyrim SE repeatedly without anything being left behind for anything more than a second or so.-I can drag/drop locally stored mods into Vortex without anything being left behind.But then-When I download something from Nexus straight to Vortex ("Mod Manager Download" button), a process is created and left behind. This is repeated for every item downloaded, adding one process every time. Closing Vortex after this does not remove the processes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
