@7531Leonidas I don’t know what SLocalSavePath value is. But the files under my general Skyrim Special Edition section are as follows: Saves Skyrim Skyrim.ini.baked Skyrim.ini.base SkyrimCustom SkyrimCustom.ini.baked SkyrimCustom.ini.base SkyrimPrefs SkyrimPrefs.ini.baked SkyrimPrefs.ini.base I honestly have no idea what any of them do. I’m going off of what you all are telling me and that’s it. I have tried googling this and looking through reddit to see if this has happened to someone else but I can’t find anything. And my lack of comprehension on how computers work isn’t helping. If it can’t be fixed then I’m just going to keep playing and save from here. Though, I’ll probably uninstall the mod and Vortex and just play base game.

@Pickysaurus I think so. I can go through what I did step by step if it would help. Docutments-> My Games-> Skyrim Special Edition-> Saves All the files outside the saves folder have .ini. after it with baked and base. Is that where it is?

@7531Leonidas You said modded saves might be hidden right? But that’s the only saves I have. The three saves I made after installing the mod. It’s all the vanilla saves that are missing. Like they just vanished from Skyrim after the mods were installed. Out of curiosity, if I deleted the mod and Vortex, would it bring my saves back? I honestly can go without having an easier way to sell things if it means all my saves are put back.

@7531Leonidas I don’t think I do. I think I saw something say my achievements were off when I loaded up my game after downloading the mods. I have no idea what I’m doing. I followed a tutorial on yt to download Vortex and install the mod. I don’t think achievements were even brought up in the video.

That’s what all my saves are under. They are under the saves folder in my general Skyrim Special Edition files. They appear everywhere they’re supposed to except actually in game. Everything seems fine until I load up Skyrim and check the load section in system but the only saves that exist are the ones the game made after I installed the mod. But when I disable the mod the saves don’t come back. Idk if I just uninstall the mod or what to fix it. Also, I did refresh the saves just to see if it would work. Unfortunately, it did not. But thank you for telling me that! I didn’t know I could do that.

Unfortunately, they already are under saves. It shows they are all here. But when I load up the game they aren’t. They show up in Vortex and in my files but not in my game. The game runs perfectly, even with the mod. Nothing crashed. My saves are just gone. I can make new saves and quicksave but the old ones never show up again.

Tysm for replying. I looked where you said and I see all my save files. But I have no idea what to do with them. When I try to open them it just tries to send me to different writing applications on my computer. I know embarrassingly little about computers and how they work. Do I move the save files to a different folder?

I am completely new to playing Skyrim and modding in general. But I was having a ton of trouble selling expensive items to merchants because they ran out of money. So I looked up a tutorial and downloaded Vortex, along with a rich merchants mod for special edition skyrim. I install everything and it seems to go smoothly. Until I actually go to play and all my saves are completely gone. I spawn in at my last save but my manual save files in game are completely gone. I went on Vortex and restored every save file it had but that did nothing. I disabled the mod and it still didn’t work. I tried open save games and the files are there under documents but I have no idea how to transfer them back to my game. I’ve tried looking up everything I can think of. Is it possible to get my saves back at all? I’m completely new to this and very confused so I’m sorry if this is a bit dumb sounding. Also sorry if the tags are wrong, too. I’ve never posted on nexus forums before.
