cjc75 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 So I'm trying to download a couple new mods for my Skyrim SE. There ae download buttons for Vortex, and Manual. Every time I click on the button for Vortex, it launches my NMM instead... but I can't download with that anymore, I want to download through Vortex. So how do I make it download through Vortex and stop launching my NMM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shumkar Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Try to go to Vortex, Settings->Download->"Handle Mod Manager download buttons on NexusMods.com". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're using Chrome, be sure to turn that Chrome Switch on too. You may have to start NMM and check to make sure it stayed unchecked, if it's still unchecked, you might have to Start Vortex, Turn off the NXM handler switch.Close VortexOpen Vortex, Turn on the NXM handler switchClose VortexOpen Vortex. Sometimes that switch gets stuck Also, it sounds like you turned the switch off in NMM AFTER you turned the switch on in Vortex, which could be why the setting didn't 'take' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickysaurus Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 If you're using Firefox it hijacks your system preferences for web protocols (for no good reason I may add). You'll have to update the association in the Firefox settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to update the association in the Firefox settings. It seems it was a combination of the switch needing to be turned off/on and the Associations in Firefox needing to be changed. Looks like its all working correctly now! Thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
