It is sorted by load order.

 

I uninstalled boss and reinstalled it and i have the same problem.

 

Also, I ran the boss gui exe and it says skyrim is not detected. Guess I found the problem. Any ideas on what I can do?

 

Start BOSSGUI: Select "Active Game" menu and make sure it is Autodetect or Skyrim. Select Edit menu, then Settings, then Debugging. Set Output Verbosity to 3 and check the Log Debug Output box. This will put a debug file in the BOSS directory. Click the OK button and on the main BOSSGUI window check the Perform Trial Run box under Run Options. Run BOSSGUI again and look at the BOSSdebuglog.txt file in the main BOSS directory.

 

Sounds like a Skyrim registry entry is missing/bad or a file security/permissions issue. I change all the programs I trust to RunAsAdministrator under the file Properties dialog. Make sure that your loadorder.txt files, etc, are not read only. Hive Key locations vary with OS so its hard to say which key might be bad (In my Win7 64bit system, Skyrim install location is at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\bethesda softworks\skyrim.) The BOSS debug log will/may give you an idea where BOSS is trying to find Skyrim. You can use regedit (CAREFUL! Back up your registry BEFORE making ANY key changes!!!) to search for key "Skyrim" and see if any key data gives an erroneous location. You should also make sure that the game cache is verified via Steam, THEN run Skyrim from the launcher itself (not SKSE, if you have it) to update registry entries. After those last two steps, try BOSSGUI again.

 

EDIT: Don't forget to un-check Trial Run on the main BOSSGUI window when done.

EDIT: Additional info (verify local game cache from Steam has been known to remove Skyrim registry keys)
