Vortex re-install: mods not enabled in games

Recommended Posts

I re-installed Vortex on a new motherboard/drive yesterday. After getting advice on this, I copied all data from the old drive (in appdata\roaming\vortex) to the new drive, then ran Vortex again. Indeed, all my games are there again!!

However, something still isn't quite correct... although Vortex shows all the mods as being enabled in various games (I've only tested fallout3 and fallout4 so far), they don't appear to actually be enabled in the games...

With fallout4, I had to go into fallout4's MODS menu to enable all the mods; vortex didn't actually enable them.

With fallout3, There isn't any MODS menu for me to do this, and the mods do not seem to be enabled in-game...

Is there something that I can do in Vortex, to get it to re-connect with the various games and get mods enabled again??

Go to the plugins tab

 

Click the first entry,

Hit CTRL+A, to select all the plugins, then in the menu that pops up at the bottom, hit ENABLE ALL, do the same thing in the the MODS Tab.

Thank you both, very much!! I've never even looked at the plugins tab before; it seemed like it had the same contents as the MODs tab, but the latter let me do more... now I think I understand!!

 

And yes, all my games now work...
