After no significant change, CTD on main menu

[Deleted41140235User]

So to explain what happened, last night I wanted to test enb stuff so I used the nat-enb preset but decided to not use it and I went back to using my photorealistic tamriel enb preset I was using before and the game was working fine. Then this morning I woke up and realized maybe I shouldn't run nat-enb plugin and nat weathers together so I disabled nat weathers and my game crashed, even when re-enabling the mod it keeps crashing. Like the game will launch open to the main menu with the options popping up for 2 seconds then crashes. On the papyrus logs it states this:

I haven't done anything too wild a change or downloaded any more mods to cause a ctd to happen.

I would go back to a save before you tried the nat-enb preset.

I would but its crashing on the main menu, like everything loads then for like 2 seconds the options appear (like continue, new, options) but then it crashes to desktop. Its just strange to me because when skyrim usually ctds while starting the game, it happens on the loading screen, not actually showing the menu then crashing.

You tried checking the local data with Steam?

[wfandrews]

As Wererommel suggested try validating your master files and then see if it starts.

 

First delete appcache in your Steam directory, then delete Skyrim.ini and SkyrimPrefs.ini in Documents > My Games > Skyrim Special Edition. After doing so shut your computer down for ten minutes or so. Start your computer up and verify the integrity of your files in Steam. Then launch your game through the Steam launcher, this will create the files you have deleted. You must do this first thing because without those ini files none of your mod tools including your mod manager will be able to locate your game.

 

If you have made any changes to your ini files or cleaned any of your game files you will need to do so again as those files will now be vanilla.

 

There is no guarantee that this will fix your problem, it is just one of the first things I usually try when my game goes wonky.

 

If your game still will not launch after you have tried a variety of fixes all I can suggest is to create a vanilla game and start from scratch. A real bummer I know but I times the only solution.

Turns out verifying the files from Steam worked, it's just strange there was a problem with the main files all of a sudden. Thank you guys for the help!
