sticky115 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 So I recently moved my steam games into a new hard drive. The games work fine. but now my mods dont load. I noticed also when i got mod load order in vortex they do not show anything but the native files. The mods are installed and i pressed deploy etc. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I have no idea what is going on and have scoured the web for hours looking a solutions but cant seem to find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hopefully, BEFORE you moved your game to a different drive you:1. PURGED your Mods first using Vortex2. Moved your Games to a different drive using Steam3. Loaded up Vortex, and manually changed the location of your Steam games you modded in Vortex.4. Re-Deployed your mods.If you didn't do that, then you'll have to start over by manually deleting your mods in your game folders, because when Hardlinks or symlinks are moved in Windows,, Windows goes ahead and makes a physical copy of your mods on the hardrive.If you Moved your Games without PURGING in Vortex first, then Vortex has no idea where the games or mods are anymore.

What relevant here is if you did steps 1 through 4. DID you do them or not? I didn't ask you about deleting everything and restarting from scratch" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
