im having the same problem. nothing seems to work

open notepad as Adminnistrator, that worked for me

For those who have problems with administrator rights just Copy your Skyrim folder out of the Program files to some other folder on the hard drive. When I do so I dont have any problems with admin rights.

You need to add that line in SkyrimPrefs.ini located in My document/MyGames/Skyrim or something. I don't use win 7 so figure it yourself, pleasa:D).

 

Look for the line:

[Launcher]

bShowAllResolutions=0

uLastAspectRatio=2

 

And add it like this:

[Launcher]

bShowAllResolutions=0

uLastAspectRatio=2

bEnableFileSelection=1

 

Good luck. :psyduck:

I am showing whole configuration files of my SkyrimPrefs, I have shown the required line in the pasted document in bold. If you don't understand anything then just copy the lines from [Display] till end and paste in SkyrimPrefs ini document in My Documents/My Games/Skyrim/SkyrimPrefs, it is a 3kb file in my copmuter.After you have copied everything and pasted then restart your game and also reset your graphics settings as it will change if you paste this.

im having the same problem. nothing seems to work

me too =/

[drizzt0909]

As i mentioned in the reply above, im having the same issue. also, i dont know if this matters at all, but under the Kyrimprefs, my launcher code is all the way at the bottom. Im not sure if placement matters for this particular issue or not, but i thought id bring it up. im also having the 'access denied' problem as well. this blows monkey chunks.

i also forgot to mention that my launcher code only contains the 'bEnableFileSelection=1', and nothing else. im pretty sure that covers everything now.

EDIT: Herp derp. I didn't realize SkyrimPrefs.ini was in TWO places.

For those who are still having problems, make sure you're editting the SkryimPrefs.ini in your User\[Account name]\Documents\My Games\Skrim folder.

Works perfectly now.

 

THIS!!

This is why it didn't work. I'm sure that 99% of people will get it working by doing this!! :thumbsup:
