Can you nass uninstall all mods in Vortex like NMM?

[JacquesStrappe88]

I meant 'Mass' uninstall. Sorry for the typo. NMM had a feature where you could uninstall all mods at once with a click. Does Vortex have a similar function? I have tried the 'purge' button, but the mods are not really 'uninstalled;' as soon as you deploy they are right back where you were. I know you can mass disable mods by using ctrl and clicking on the mods, but can you completely uninstall mass numbers of mods or do you have to uninstall one by one?

go to mods, hit cntl-A to select all - a white box appears, click disable - done.

Couple of caveats to that. You have to hit Deploy to actually get them removed.

A quicker, faster option might just be to hit Purge. That removes all hard links at once. If you want to re-enable them later, just hit Deploy.

CTRL + A and then remove

Go to the 'Plugins' tab, not the 'Mods' tab and then hit "ctrl+A" and a white-ish ribbon menu will appear at the bottom of the interface. The button you need is at the far right.

Not saying you are wrong - but that does not meet my expectation.

A plugin (esp, etc) Is part of a mod, and if you remove the mod the plugin goes too.

If you hit Remove on the plugin panel, I would expect the esp, etc to be removed, but not the meshes, textures and scripts that comprise the rest of the mod.

Would not bother me if Tannin chimed in at this point.

The button on the far right is "Deselect All." It is not a button that enables, disables, or deletes plugins. There is no delete button on the bottom bar. To delete plugins you need to use "Remove" on the Mods Page.

The "Remove" I was referring to was the individual line item "Remove" on Plugins.

I honestly don't know what that does... I can be sure it deletes the individual Esp - but what does it do to the mod?

Act like you manually deleted the Esp from the Data directory, and show up later as a Save or Revert? Or automatically remove the Esp from the mod?

Am I going blind? I don't see an individual line item "Remove" on the plugins page. All I've found so far are the "Enable"/"Disable" options. Admittedly, it's a pretty busy page with all Actions selected. "Remove" may be right in front of me and I'm not seeing it. (Mirabile dictu! There's a toggleable LOOT inline message feature I've never seen before!)

Dang - when you select an individual plugin, Vortex auto-switches you to the Mod page. I completely missed that.... All my comments go away.

And it only switches you to the mod page if you happen to click on the mod name part of the plugin line...

There I was - trying to get you a screen shot... I think it is past my bed time...
