Weird glitch where items spawn out of place

I have tried searching for this but I'm not getting the keywords right or something because I can't find anything on this. Many loose items in the world are out of place. Like a health potion that should be sitting on a table actually spawns under it. This is happening across multiple save games. I will probably go through my modlist one by one but I need to find a convenient testing site first. In the meantime I'm just wondering if anyone knows about this glitch and has a solution.

Check to see if any mods affect the positioning of those items and / or the surface they are supposed to be on. If the surface gets raised and the item(s) do not, they will fall through the table until they hit another surface.

Is that something I can check for in SSEEdit? If it is what would the category be?

Ok so I found some misplaced items (a potion under a shelf that was impossible to pick up without tcl), looked them up in SSEEdit and the potion and shelf position are unaltered by any mods

 

 

I reinstalled Skyrim and tested and things were normal but when I replaced my .ini files with my back ups the problem came back

So I fixed it but I'm not sure if it was the .ini files or not. Reinstalling + New .ini files + New Game and everything is okay again. Reinstalling might have been unnecessary. Things are still a little weird on my save games, things are pretty much in the right spot but picking them up/grabbing them puts items out of place again.

Your saves may have some things "baked in" that are playing havok with the havok system (pun intended). Also, the havok system and the physics in general are notorious for knocking things about. There may be a perfectly placed table but pick up a carrot and everything flies all over the room.
