Fallout 4: Can't activate game

Recommended Posts

I keep getting an error stating "Failed to set game mode" and when i click on more says "Missing D:\Games\Fallout 4\data" but I can run the game just fine and the data file is there...

 

What I have done so far:

 

  • Checked that Vortex and fallout 4 is in the same directory, i.e.
Vortex install path: 
D:\Games\Vortex


Vortex download path:
D:\Games\VORTEX DOWNLOADS


Fallout 4 path: 
D:\Games\Fallout 4
  • I've uninstalled (and even deleted the user cache in AppData\Roaming several times)
  • Manually installed Vortex, specifying it to be installed in D:
  • Renamed the FO4 data file from Data to data
  • Tried but failed to change the data file from read-only to ... well not that.
  • spam clicking activate
  • update my java

Any suggestions?

 

Edit: Just realised I've installed an HD texture mod straight into the data folder (game works fine), so could this be the source of the error? If so, is there a workaround?
