After discussing with Tannin, a potential fix would be to register all possible appdata folders instead of just the one
A similar issue occurs with INI folders: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/10878073-microsoft-store-point-vortex-to-the-ini-file/
Describe the bug I have been working on a load-order related extension in my free time and noticed a potential issue whereby Vortex may not manage the correct version of the plugins.txt and loadorder.txt files when the user has the Xbox version of the game.
So, to start, I'm looking at the
context.registerProfileFile()
call as shown here: https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/extension-plugin-management/blob/1c5dde7d269e787e662fffacd11bc64a8de6ab61/src/index.ts#L314This works perfectly fine when called in this instance, however, there are a few cases where the AppData path will be different based on how the game is installed (Enderal/Xbox Game Pass).
I have attempted to mitigate this here: https://github.com/Pickysaurus/vortex-hybrid-loadorder/blob/main/src/index.ts#L163
However, you cannot call
context.registerProfileFile()
this late in the setup without Vortex sending a warning to the log file (and, presumably, failing).With the current implementation of game support, I can only, truly know the AppData path once I have the
discovery.path
attribute.Example of that here: https://github.com/Pickysaurus/vortex-hybrid-loadorder/blob/main/src/util/gameSupport/skyrimse.ts#L43
In short, this means that the profile feature will register the wrong files for the load order for Xbox game pass version of the game.
