moved steam out of program files, need correct file paths

Hi, I recently moved my steam from program files x86 to C:\Steam and my games all launched fine. Using Vortex I'm now getting the message 'No Deployment Method Available' And a notification stating i have missing masters. Following gamer poet's 'how to safely move steam library' video, near the end he says then to change file paths to the new/ correct location within my mod manager (Vortex). My issue is I don't know where to point the mod staging folder path ( looks like this now: {USERDATA}\{GAME}\mods ) and the Downloads folder path ( looks like this now: {USERDATA}\downloads ) Can anyone tell me with the info provided how to direct the new paths?

So now your path is C:\Steam\steamapps\common\GAME\

 

 

Were your Mod Staging Folder and Download Folder INSIDE your Steam Folder?

They shouldn't be, they should be in their own place such as

C:\Vortex Downloads\<NAME OF GAME>\

C:\Vortex Mod Staging Folder\<NAME OF GAME>

 

It sounds like you had both your Mod staging folder and Download Folder inside the Steam directory

****EDIT****

So I just closed & re opened Vortex a couple of times and the last time a notification told me hardlink deployment was enabled and Vortex had to re discover skyrim....all of which is confusing to me but the issue has been resolved! Thank you for your time.

 

I can't find a folder named 'mod staging' anywhere, do you happen to know the default location so i can check for it? & my Actual Skyrim SE mods are currently located here: C:\Users\ninja0420\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\downloads\skyrimse

The default location for the Mod Staging Folder for Skyrim SE is in the folder "skyrimse" in the same Vortex directory as "Downloads."
