M15f17 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 So I recently formatted my computer, vortex saved all the mods to an external drive, and I kept my previous Fallout 4 install folder, but now I can't figure out how to reload the mods into Vortex. I have a folder full of the mod folders and Vortex tried to load them but they showed up under the plugin menu rather than mods. Is there a way to load them back in to Vortex?

HadToRegister Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 If you have mods in their own folders, then you're talking about the mod staging folder.Unfortunately, it sounds like you didn't PURGE the mods first, then back up the appdata\roaming\Vortex folder in order to save all the necessary info for Vortex to use.

I have access to all the files as I saved my User folder before the format. How would I go about doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C:\user\<YOUR NAME>\appdata\roaming\Vortex Restore the folder to where it was, and make sure that the Mod Staging Folder and Download Folder are where they were originally located Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
