RayneG45 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I had it installed just fine, and my mods were working just fine a couple days ago, but now it says that, i didn't remove any files.... though that dang backup thing might have. it said something about 500+ files missing and restoring them. i might have clicked yes as i assume something was wrong. nnut thats all that happened between it working and it not, unlesss vortex mods could have done this. could someone please help? should I uninstal and reinstall skyrim special edition? i did use steam to check that all the files were there and intact. it said everything was okay. and yes I did install the current SE build, i did use 7zip, and i did copy them al;l to the correct place as per the tutorials.

notho99 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I've had this happen to me before. I used purge mods to test something, then deployed when I was done - everything looked fine until I started the game and got this same message. Turns out, when I deployed after the purge, deploy did not enable the plugins under the plugins tab - I selected all the plugins (with a few exceptions), hit enable and everything was fine. so, check under plugins and make sure they are enabled.

Pickysaurus Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 You can install SKSE through Vortex to make managing it easier. It's possible some part of it was accidentally deleted. The problem with installing manually is you need to know which parts it has and which ones are missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayneG45 Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 what do you mean by purging? and how do you do that Picky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AugustaCalidia Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 what do you mean by purging? and how do you do that Picky? Purging removes the mod hardlinks from the game data folder. Deploying restores them. Purging is a non-destructive procedure. It does not remove any mods or mod archives. The "Purge" button is found on the mods page taskbar.

RayneG45 Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) I did that... nothing happened. i tried redownloading Skse64, but all i get is a single folder that does nothing isntead of a big 7 zip file. should I just delete all SKSE64 files on my computer and uninstall skyrim then reinstall it?

rmm200 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Download SKSE64 directly from https://skse.silverlock.org It is never necessary to reinstall Skyrim. At worst, have Steam validate your installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickysaurus Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Take the 7z file you downloaded from the SKSE website and drop it into the section at the bottom of the mods tab in Vortex. Then it'll install like any other mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
