Vortex unusable after secondary HDD failure

Recommended Posts

So the HDD that had my games and mods on it died. I reinstalled fallout 4 and attempted to start rebuilding my mod library, however vortex wouldn't let me "remove" the mods it thought were installed since the staging folder and everything else were gone.

 

I then uninstalled vortex and deleted everything in the blacktree documents folder, and the appdata folder before reinstalling vortex. however I still get a message that drive "d:\" can't be found and can't activate any games with vortex. The program is seemingly completely locked with no way of resetting it, please help.

Uninstall vortex. And also delete {USER}\AppData\Roaming\Vortex, the Skyrim SE folder in {USER}\AppData\Local, and the Skyrim SE folder in Documents\My Games??

 

that should clear all traces of vortex and allow it to start from new when installed.

Thank you so much! I was getting rather frustrated.
