Over time the guide has grown with content I added to what it is today. I was simply porting over information directly from Vortex to Steam via copy & paste in a Guide format for whomever may be interested.

Originally much of this guide was copied directly from the Vortex Knowledge Base (I did speak with the very helpful folks in the Nexus Vortex forums, like Tannin42 and Pickysaurus, before publishing this 'guide'). So rather than giving my personal opinion I thought it would be helpful to give folks a few words directly from the Vortex archives. I spend a considerable amount of my time helping Gamers with their modding questions and many are confused as to which Mod Manager to use and that confusion is many times compounded by 'bad information' regarding what Vortex is, who designed Vortex and what happened to Nexus Mod Manager. While this belongs in the 'Guide' category on Steam hopefully it also serves as a means to cut through the main question for Gamers that are new to the modding scene. First, why this guide and what does it contain?
