grovermclurg Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Hi all I'm unable to automatically download mods from Nexus to Vortex. Currently I've been manually downloading and adding which has worked just fine and Vortex is a fantastic bit of kit, but I'm starting to miss the ability to auto update. Things I've done to try and fix this issue:* Cleared browser cache and cookies* Confirmed that Handle is checked In Vortex Download Settings* Confirmed that browser is set-up to handle nxm links* Confirmed I'm logged in to nexus* Confirmed that Vortex is in my firewall rules* Shifted the Vortex download file outside program data* Vortex seems to be able to communicate to nexus when I use the Mod, description, guess Nexus mod id feature What happens when I try to download a link:* If Vortex isn't running, it launches when I click implying link handling is working* Firefox asks me if I want to use the default application for nxm links which is shown as vortex* The firewall log doesn't report any refused connections as far as I can tell* The Vortex log contains the following entry for each time I click (I'm using Cathedral Weathers and Seasons as my test example):Sat, 01 Jun 2019 11:06:57 GMT - debug: getting arguments from second instance 0=C:\Program Files\Black Tree Gaming Ltd\Vortex\Vortex.exe, 1=nxm://SkyrimSE/mods/24791/files/92410?key=JID7xacd4BKar6B2kbWWVQ&expires=1559559842&user_id= [XXXXXXXXX] Download then fails to spawn. Grateful for any help and apols if I'm missing something obvious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannin42 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 What else does the log say after the line you posted? Anything related to the download? Please also make sure that you are logged in in Vortex with the same user account as you use to browse the page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadToRegister Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Did you set Vortex to handle NXM rules? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grovermclurg Posted June 1, 2019 Author Share Posted June 1, 2019 Yes, confirmed (second in the list in my original post). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grovermclurg Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 So tried a few more things but still no joy:* Disabled windows firewall entirely* Disabled all script blockers in Firefox Would elevating the privileges of Vortex to admin via UAC make a difference?

BigBizkit Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Just to be clear: it does work with other browsers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grovermclurg Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 Good point! I dusted off Chrome and downloads are working there, so it's an issue with FF set-up. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
