Vortex "Failed to bake" error

Hi everyone,




As a result of research by our Vortex developers, we have discovered the "Controlled folder access" feature in Windows 10 can cause significant issues with games and mod managers.




While Controlled folder access is disabled by default, if enabled, Vortex (and other apps/games) will be unable to obtain permission to write to the "Documents" folder to update your INIs when deploying/switching profiles. This also blocks the games themselves from creating new save files or editing your settings (even running as admin doesn't override this setting).




We've put together a help page on our Wiki with information about this feature and how to stop it from causing problems: https://wiki.nexusmods.com/index.php/Controlled_Folder_Access




Special thanks to XWingLeader on GitHub for helping us pin down this issue.
