NMM Crashes Upon Selecting Skyrim for Modding

[whatorthat]

Hey all--

 

I mod a number of different games with NMM. But for some reason attempting to mod Skyrim results in an unhandled exception. I recently did a fresh install, and the game launches fine.

 

Here's the relevant part of the log. Any suggestions?

[HeyYou]

Apparently it isn't finding the registry entry for 'install path' for skyrim. I think........
