Hey guys, I found out that nifskope 1.0 couldn't open skyrim nifs, so I installed nifskope 1.1.x. This program can open those nifs, but when I click on the file in windows explorer it automatically opens nifskope 1.0. This is probably because nifskope 1.1 didn't came with an installer, and .nif files are associated with nifskope 1.0. So I removed nifskope 1.0 from my pc, and now it doesn't work either because nifskope is never in the list of programs under "open with...".

 

Does anyone know to solve this or has anyone a link to an installer version of the newest nifskope?.

thanks.

Set the association of NIFs with the new version in Windows.

Right click on a nif file, selct "Open with" > "Choose default program". Browse to the Niftools exe and select it.

 

There you go, done.

well, that's exactly the problem: it doesn't work. when I click Open with and browse to nifskope.exe it doesn't show up in my list of default programs afterwards, so I can't even open the .nif with nifskope once.
