Shahbanu Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) So, my story goes like this: whenever I try to download any mods for skyrim I get a pop-up message that says the nexus mod manager is not set up to work with skyrim and that if skyrim is installed I should rescan for installed games. Yes, I do realize how simple that sounds. Thing is, I did that before even trying to download a mod but figured I'd do it again just to be sure. Yet I got the same problem after scanning again. This is odd because according to the NMM skyrim was detected and I clicked the green check mark. So then I wondered if maybe the path is wrong so I manually checked that. It's correct. Skyrim is installed and playable (even SKSE is but that's not relevant, I think). Even though I modded Fallout 4 quite extensively with the NMM prior to this I feel like I'm making a rookie's mistake somewhere this time around. Could somebody please offer his/her two cents? Any help provided is much appreciated. EDIT: I have tried reinstalling the NMM to no avail. Edited October 19, 2016 by Shahbanu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kroekr Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Are Skyrim and NMM both installed OUTSIDE of C:\Program Files? If not, then they need to be moved. They also have to be on the same hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
