I'm trying to activate some mods that were disabled after the last patch of the game. F4SE is updated, the game works but when I try to activate some mod with Vortex (enabling it) strangely that enabling involves permanent changes in the folder game in documents. What happens is that the game doesn't start (immediate CTD of the launcher) and even disabling the mod via Vortex doesn't solve the problem, everything has changed in that folder and you need to recreate the files via Steam to make the game work again.

I just downgraded fallout 4 and having an ALR issue and another issue. I have no idea what the problem is or what it could be causing. Here's the second issue. If anyone else has faced this issue and solved it would be really appreciated to give the information on how you got rid of this error.

Hey guys. I'm having againg troubles with Fallout 4 which I mod via Vortex. From time to time the mods stops working out of nowhere as I receive the error code "invalid primary tool" while starting Vortex the first time a day. So it happened today as well: My F4SE is broken - again. Out of nowhere, I started my computer and received via Vortex the ugly "invalid primary tool" error. It literally just broke over night - again! As reinstalling doesn't do anything (it stops whilst deploying) I'm pretty sure there's an issue with the storage folder/path. Can anyone please clarify where exactly my files need to be stored? My game is here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4 My F4SE is here: C:\Users\XYZ\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\fallout4\mods\Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE)-42147-0-7-2-1715628153 Is this correct? If not, where I need to save my F4SE (and all the other mods, too)? Also, if someone anywers "mods need to be stored where your .exe is"....Please clarify where exactly: does it need to be inside the exact same folder or is it sufficient if it's withing the folder-tree (like any subfolder etc.) Has anyone an idea what might be the issue? All help highly appreciated! EDIT: I've now changed my mod stagging folder to: C:\Modding\Vortex (I just created this new folder). So the F4SE for example is now here C:\Modding\Vortex\mods\fallout4\Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE)-42147-0-7-2-1715628153. But this doesn't work as well...
