Not sure if this will help you but is what I do with SSE and NMM. Find a mod that interests you, download it MANUALLY, launch NMM then install the mod. To avoid any mod conflicts read the install instructions BEFORE installing the mod as you can potentially cause some serious issues when playing. Avantare

@L3s7ing and @wfandrews Thanks for the replies. Huge mental poot from me on this. Both games play wonderfully well and I'm loving SE! Can't wait for more mods to come out. Getting NMM to work was a piece of cake after I updated the the latest version. @quicksilverva Experimenting with Skyrim mods in Skyrim Second Edition the ones that have issues are the re-texturing, skinning types. Others not falling in that ilk appear to function pretty well from the mods that I use. Skyrim SE mods in Skyrim though result in various issues ranging from horrible graphics (tearing, ripping, etc), graphics colors (LOOK! A 3 yo colored this. :-P ), locking the game up (even had one time it locked up my machine, had to use the power switch to turn it off) and a plethora of CTD's. Happy New Year to each of you and save those Septims. Avantare

I created a Bethesda account and installed a few mods from their site. Now when I use NMM the Bethesda version runs and none of the mods in NMM load. I went back to the Bethesda site uninstalled the mods I had installed and removed them from my favorites as well. Skyrim still launches the Bethesda version and not the Steam version of Skyrim even when I use NMM. I do have access to my NMM mods through Skyrim now. I have uninstalled then reinstalled NMM, SKSE and SkyUI. NMM will only launch the Bethesda version. When I use SKSE to launch Skyrim SE there appears to be no issues. NMM and Skyrim (original) load and run with no issues. Is there a*.ini file that needs edited perhaps?
