How to get NMM to work without skyrim installed?

Usually most mods have the option for manual install, so simply download that option, copy the file to a thumb drive and drop the mod into the skyrim/data folder. To see if the game has recognized that it's there open up the game and go to the data files menu before starting the game. I hope that helped

The NMM should be able to work offline from the PC without internet connection as well. Adding mods "from file" should work regardless.

You will only need to login and go online for features requiring to communicate with the website. Worth a try.

 

Otherwise, you "can" convince the NMM to manage an install for Skyrim without actually having Skyrim. Just give it all it asks for when "manually" entering the game folder when it searches for it.

It will complain about some missing game files, but it won't compare them with actual correct files and not notice when they're respectively renamed "empty" text files instead.
