Find your plugins file in the directory below: C:\Users\YOURNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Skyrim AppData is hidden by default so make sure you have "show hidden files and folders" ON see last quote (NFI how to do anchors within text) Just add skyrim.esm at the top, delete any extra skyrim.esm's or move skyrim.esm to the top! Helpful Sources below: AppData is hidden. To show hidden files and folders, do this (source: http://cybertext.wordpress.com/2012/05/29/cant-see-the-appdata-folder/ ) Go to Windows Explorer. Open the C: drive. Click Organize on the menu bar. Select Folder and Search options. Select the View tab. Under Files and Folders > Hidden files and folders, select the option toShow hidden files, folders and drives. Click OK.
