Loot: None of the supported games were detected

It worked for me too. I couldnt find the settings.yaml, but I tried it in the debug log, and it worked just fine. Thank you so much for the help!

When i went in there only this appeared

 

[0801/165159:ERROR:main_delegate.cc(766)] Could not load cef_extensions.pak

Didnt work for me... no games seen by loot... :sad:

I know it's a bit late, but....

 

Run the Skyrim Launcher through MO, let the mods sync up, then run Skyrim through the launcher. Got mine working just fine.

 

Thank you for the help :)

try running the skyrim launcher first then quit it and launch loot

tried that but it didn't work for me, when I went back into the file it deleted the destination I had saved previously, any ideas on how to proceed?

1. Go to C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\LOOT

2. Open settings.yaml with a text editor

3. Search for "type: Skyrim" and a bit below that is "path: ....." Change that line to the location where your Skyrim is installed.

 

I hope that helps.

THIS IS GODLY. If anyone still has trouble with this make sure you also remove the quotes when you replace the line in Path: "". That had me confused.

Yep....It wouldn't load for me either. After Opening Fallout4 and closing it. Loot sees it. Thanks guys

thank you so much for posting this! I was looking for hours on what to do... I had to run Skyrim Launcher, then Skyrim via MO (just started both the immediately exited) and then when I ran Loot, it totally recognized Skyrim

[Kyleestes92]

where is your Skyrim game at?

That worked for me! Thanks!!

This happened to me also, very frustrating yeah? Why Loot can't find it is just lazyness on Loot programers.

My Loot could not find my Skyrim Special Edition on my F drive, so I went into Loot settings, looked for Skyrim SP (this is all you will see) under the "Loot folder" section

On that same line as Skyrim SP, under Instal Path" you will see Install path left blank, type in your SSE game location in there or C&P mine and change the "F" to your drive letter. My SSE location is F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\ , if yours is on another drive put C instaed of F or what ever it is, some times it's E or G.

Close Loot and open again, it should be there.

This worked for me and hope it helps you out too.

Cheers.

Coffee.
