Vortex Profile Management Question

[NightEve]

So this is the 1st time I have ever tried using the profile system from both NMM and Vortex. So i decided to clone my current profile and enable the it's own save game and game setting.

 

So the 1st question is that the new profile appears to have 3 mods missing even thought I just clone it. From 275 to 272.

 

So the 2nd is how do I set the mods to be different? Do I disable or uninstall when using a new profile. And if I disable, do I just disable the mod itself or the plugin.

1) You may want to check if any mods are "Disabled" in your new profile. There's likely to be 3.

2) You can disable them per-profile but uninstalling them removes them for all profiles.

I have eight or so Skyrim SE profiles, all cloned from a common base.

Then on each profile, I enable those mods that make that profile unique.

I have one called Carved Brink, for example.

Mods for all profiles show on my Mods page - any given profile has most of them disabled.

Any time you change Profiles - Deploy. Can't hurt - and may save you some real grief.

Go to your Saves page and import the save game you want to start with on this profile. And Deploy again...
