You don't have an instance of Skyrim already running? You should right click both TESV.exe to Skyrim4gb.exe, go to properties>general and make sure neither of them have "read-only" checked.. beyond this I can only recommend moving Skyrim4gb.exe out of the data folder and putting it into the same directory as TESV.exe..

 

I couldn't help but notice the file path for your game is "C:\Program Files (x86)\The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim\Data\skyrim4gb.exe" and not steam.. I won't jump to conclusions and assume you have cracked the game, but if you have this can obviously create problems because TESV.exe is not the original executable and god knows what has been changed in there. If however you do have a legit version in steam, try deleting TESV.exe completely then opening steam, right clicking Skyrim, go properties > local files, then VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME CACHE.. once it has completed steam will realize TESV.exe is missing and download you a new copy. Good Luck :)
