BrollyLssj25 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 As the title says. How do i remove disabled Plugins from Vortex that come from mods no longer installed? I have plugins in vortex from mods that are uninstalled for over a year now. Some even longer. How do i get rid of them for good? Vortex has no option to delete them in any way i found so far. No i dont want to delete all my mods and reinstall them again. No i also dont want to delete everything in my fallout 4 folder. And no to the delete folder xyz and reinstall the game as well. I just want to get rid of those plugins nothing more and nothing less. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrollyLssj25 Posted July 9, 2019 Author Share Posted July 9, 2019 Just manually delete them from your DATA folderI have over 250 mods installed. To delete them manually it would take me hours to actually find them all and not delete the wrong one. There has to be a way for vortex to get rid of them. Otherwise this program is garbage.

BrollyLssj25 Posted July 9, 2019 Author Share Posted July 9, 2019 if vortex installed them, then simply purge them.if vortex didn't install them, it doesn't know about, or care about them, pretty much the same as any mod manager. hence it won't delete them.can i ask how they got there if they were not installed/managed by vortex?They all got installed over vortex. May i ask how i purge them without deleting all my mods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did they get installed "Over vortex"?What do you mean?You were using two mod managers at one point and installed some with Vortex, and others with something else?

So where did that ton of plugins come from that you want to get rid of?How did they get there? Did you delete the mods through vortex without uninstalling them?

By uninstalling mods but the plugins remained. 3. Nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
