So you have those files on OneDrive (Microsoft cloud provider) and the status icons indicate that a synchronisation is in progress, I would assume that's the reason.

 

The fact you're seeing this issue still I'm guessing OneDrive is messing up or maybe it's not even running.

Yes, I have all permissions on skyrim documents and steam folder, of course I created 2000 files manually until I decided to look for the solution.

 

 

TAKE OWNERSHIP of those Folder sand STOP necroing and hijacking threads, start your own.

Also, if you MANUALLY installed those 2000 files, then how do you expect Vortex to know anything about them?

 

People keep moving, deleting, creating, copying files OUTSIDE of Vortex, and then are expecting Vortex to somehow know about those changes.

Now I hate to beat the dead horse but. He DID mention that this was due to a shifted user originally.

 

All in all has anyone found a solution? I recently had to switch users myself and id really not like to click through them all

If you're talking about taking ownership, then just click on the top most folder and pick the option that takes ownership of all the sub folders and files in the top folder.

You don't need to take ownership of each folder one by one

I found a solution that worked for me:

open windows firewall

click on allow an app

click manage as admin

add

go to whatever folder that was denied access

open

now click ok and its done.

If that alone doesn't work also add the vortex.exe
