HadToRegister Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 So HadToRegister was wrong about the mods being removed? But the inter-dependencies and deployments are removed, right? Vortex was doing fine until the update came along, so if another programme altered or damaged Vortex during or after the installation, then that was quite an odd coincidence. Not that it's impossible, I have had problems with AV's before, but the timing is extremely odd. I'll investigate, see if I can either find a Virus or if the AV itself is the problem. I was talking specifically about UNINSTALLATION Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinmaus13 Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Just had this error after cloning my hard drive to another drive. Reinstalling or uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work. However, after uninstalling I found a Vortex folder persisted in C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local. The folder had a folder named "pending" with an "update-info.json" file containing a hash. After deleting the entire Vortex folder from that location and reinstalling, the error went away. My guess is the hard drive clone altered something that made the hash invalid and Vortex checks the hash when running. Anyway, solution was to delete C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local\Vortex and reinstall.

divotdog Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 When i had this issue i had to hard uninstall vortex and restart my computer. reinstalling before restarting my pc did not work. also be sure to enable vortex in your anti-virus software. thats what caused the issue for me.

ShadelShadelandlonllShade Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) Updated my installation of Vortex just now and encountered the same error as the OP. Reinstalled over the old one. Same error. Antivirus quarantine and logs clear, no interactions.
