Fitzy467 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Ladies and Gentlemen, I have tried both the help and Vortex Support and have not found a solution, nor did a search on 'give permission' yield any results:- Whenever I start up Vortex it immediately sends a pop-up claiming 'Vortex needs to access C:\Users\MARK\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\temp\extensions.json'. It states it needs permission and offers a button 'Give Permission'. I press this and then allow the next windows pop-up which states that 'Vortex wants to make changes'. However, it does not work no matter how many times I 'give permission', 'retry' or 'cancel'. Basically this means than I cannot get the game to start unless I uninstall Vortex or disable all of the Mods. Please can anyone help. This is a re-install problem which I have never had before. Thankyou in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitzy467 Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 I have fixed tis problem by moving the mods access out of Programs (x86) giving Vortex the new route. However, now the game refuses to begin unless I run it without any mods whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you use Vortex to move the folder or Windows Explorer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
