Missing Masters, yet .esm files are there

[Microraptor13]

Vortex keeps telling me that with mods that need the DLCs, which I have, that the masters aren't enabled. Yet, I looked in SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Data and found Dawnguard.esm, Dragonborn.esm, and HearthFires.esm all in there. I even deleted them and reinstalled them with Steam. Yet Vortex continues to tell me they aren't enabled and Skyrim crashes when I start it up. Is there a way to enable these files? I am using a new laptop and just installed both Skyrim and Nexus recently if that helps.

Try removing the following two files and restarting Vortex:

C:\Users\<NAME>\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\skyrimse\masterlist\masterlist.yaml

C:\Users\<NAME>\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\skyrimse\userlist.yaml

That didn't change anything. Sorry.

I fixed it. I had to open skyrim through Skyrim Script Extender to get the opening screen where you set graphic settings. I clicked Data Files and had to manually check to load all of the DLC. Not sure why that was the case, but that's what worked.

Great, glad you got it fixed!
