bigduke6 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 HelloI have problems with kingdom come(well not if I load from steam) no mods are working, so I deleted all the mods and tried again but on pressing the button for vortex to activate the game a red warning come up on right corner 'failed to set game folder and on clicking it, it is trying to find a pathj/file that's not longer there and deleted and I cant get by this. I removed vortex through add/remove programmes on windows, and went to reinstall what I though would be a new fresh version, but it loads up as the version I deleted, its as though it remembers me and loads what I have? (are there some hidden folders that I missed in removing vortex) I deleted and get the same 'failed to set game folder 'message as before when I try and activate the game. Please help as its driving me nuts. do you think I have to delete the game as well and do a fresh install on it and then vortex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I don't know why people insist on uninstalling and reinstalling everything, thinking that will fix everything, when all you have to do is change the path to your current install of Kingdom Come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deleted34304850 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 start by formatting your hard disk, opening your machine, removing that hard disk and replace it with a brand new one that has never been used before, then install windows 10 ....

HadToRegister Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Thanks for the reply Hadto register, but vortex is trying to find a path link thats not there anymore, i deleted all the mods and keep getting the failed to set game folder message ? So even when you click on MANUALLY SET LOCATION, you're unable to browse to where Kingdom Come is installed and pick that folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigduke6 Posted January 1, 2020 Author Share Posted January 1, 2020 Hi again, yes the file path its asking for is now deleted. I don't have any mods at all in the folder. Vortex is trying to access a path that no longer exists. When the red message come up, I can click it which shows me the path or to dismiss. I cant edit the path in this pop up message and its a different path to where I had the mods folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadToRegister Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 When you say you "Delete all the mods", did you use Vortex to uninstall them, or did you delete them manually, also, if you manually deleted them, from which folder did you delete themDid you used to have a J:\ drive? You say that the PATH was deleted, how did you do that?Did you delete it using Vortex or did you delete it using windows file explorer OUTSIDE of Vortex?Do you still have a J:\ Drive?If so, try recreating the path and folder in windows File Explorer so Vortex can find the currently Deleted path Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigduke6 Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 Hi and thanks again for your reply. My operating system is on my c: drive and my games are on d: drive. I think I deleted the whole mods folder in windows. I found the folder and just deleted the whole thing. I then used add remove program to remove vortex. I reloaded vortex, then went to add kingdom game and when trying to activate the game, I keep getting the failed to set game folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had a bunch of people who've done this, deleted the mod OUTSIDE of vortex, instead of uninstalling them with Vortex first, then complexity screwing up their Vortex install You need to uninstall Vortex, and find the Vortex folder in C:\users\<YOURNAME>\appdata\roaming\ and delete it, and install it again and set it up properly, and from now on, STOP deleting things OUTSIDE of Vortex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
