H311St0rm Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Hi there, So I have a question. I recently started using Vortex to manage mods for Code Vein.I see a rather strange behavior that I have not noticed earlier(other times I used Vortex or NMM for Skyrim mods).I click the download with manager link and then I get a pop up window asking to open Vortex regardless if it's open or not. I really have no clue how to search for any info on this.I remember not having this situation back a few years ago with NMM. I checked and it's not just Code Vein mods but also Witcher 3. I have no other games installed that the manager supports so can't test more. Is there a way to get rid of this behavior ? I tried to give admin privileges to Vortex but I got a warning that it was not a good idea. Thx for your time and have a nice day/night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadToRegister Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Sounds like your Browser got the NXM filetype set to Open Vortex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickysaurus Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 So you're trying to stop mods downloading into Vortex? Which app are you trying to use instead? If the other app doesn't process NXM links you may be best to download manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's happening is when he clicks "Download with Manager" it opens up VortexIt sounds like he's got his browser set to Open Vortex.exe when he clicks an NXM link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H311St0rm Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 I am not trying to stop using Vortex. I am trying to bypass a window that appears when I click on "mod manager download".Instead of sending the link to Vortex, it gives me a pop-up to open Vortex, after which if i click Open, it works as intended.Vortex is running this entire time.
