Vortex Stuck on Start Up

Just occurred to me to report in. I did fix this. Discovered that Vortex was not actually uninstalling everything, and some old crap was left in the AppData\Roaming folder. I cleared that after an uninstall, and it started working correctly after the next install.

Hey having the exact same issue, What did you delete to get it working again?

Try looking for anything that has a date modified from before you updated (or the current day). For safety, do not delete these files until you have confirmed that everything is working as it should. Until then simply make a temporary folder somewhere outside of %appdata% and move the aforementioned files into it. To get to the appdata folder use Win+R then type "%appdata%" without the quotes.

 

After you've confirmed it works, go ahead and delete them

Guys, you need to sticky this sh!t.

I have been having issues with Vortext since the beginning of 2018, I even began downloading my mods manually and adding them into nmm manually since they turned off nmm integration.

Add this to your Troubleshooting page like....
Vortex splash screen hangs on start:
1. Uninstall.

2. Start -> run -> %appdata%

3. Scroll down to vortex, and delete the whole folder.

4. Re-install Vortex.

5. ???

6. Profit.

Thanks for coming here and sharing that fix, not many people do, and instead come back and post "Never mind, Fixed it"

I've added it to my personal, ever growing troubleshooting TXT file for future reference
