why am I not logged into Nexus automatically?

[pzaw]

hi,

 

I startup Vortex and it tells me I am logged in.

then I go to the website to update or something and I am made to login again?

why this extra step. is it for security reasons?

I thought Vortex was made to make modding easy.

 

So Votrex wants permission to log into Nexus but Nexus won't let you in unless you are logged in?

That's because you're using two different programs (Vortex and your webbrowser) and those don't interact in any way. Although it adds some extra security I'm convinced that this is not the reason why this is happening, that's purely because your'e using 2 programs which both use different ways to validate your account on Nexus (a webbrowser generally uses cookies and a (optionally) stored useraccount / password whereas Vortex does this differently (I don't know how exactly ;)).
