Loot will not detect fallout 4 and i can not figure out why.. I have the latest version of loot that works with Skyrim special edition. I have looked all over the internet and no one seemed to anwser the question with any help. can someone please help, i would greatly appreciate it.

Is Fallout in the default Steam installation directory? If it isn't there, LOOT won't find it and you'll need to manually point to it.

i fixed it i had to start up fallout up 4 again so windows could realize the game was installed.. but still, thank you for the help!

Glad it was such an easy fix! If only most of what we troubleshoot was so simple. :D

i know this is from so long ago, but for those of you who didnt get it fixed, heres the manual method. open loot, click the dots in the top right corner, click settings, scroll to fallout 4 not fallout 4 vr, then in the field where it says "install path" . you must enter the file url. so to get that minimize loot, right click your fallout launcher open file location, then in the top of the window is the file location address, right click after it in the empty space of the location space, then click copy address as plain text, then maximize loot, then click the field where it says install path and press control v to paste it in there(right clicking the field doesnt work) then select fallout 4in the games list since it will show up now and youre good to go. the locations are different for steam and non steam users(just saying)

@kxkorrupter- this is over a year later , but your post solved my issue, as Loot all of a sudden wouldn't reconize FO4, after having used it for several days. Your method helped me to get it back. Thank-you.

So che è di tanto tempo fa, ma per quelli di voi che non l'hanno risolto, ecco il metodo manuale. apri il bottino, fai clic sui punti nell'angolo in alto a destra, fai clic su impostazioni, scorri fino a fallout 4 non fallout 4 vr, quindi nel campo dove c'è scritto "percorso di installazione". devi inserire l'URL del file. quindi per ridurre al minimo il bottino, fai clic con il pulsante destro del mouse sul percorso del file aperto del lanciatore di fallout, quindi nella parte superiore della finestra c'è l'indirizzo del percorso del file, fai clic con il pulsante destro del mouse dopo di esso nello spazio vuoto dello spazio della posizione, quindi fai clic su copia indirizzo come testo normale, quindi massimizza il bottino, quindi fai clic sul campo in cui dice percorso di installazione e premi control v per incollarlo lì (fare clic con il pulsante destro del mouse sul campo non funziona) quindi seleziona fallout 4 nell'elenco dei giochi poiché verrà visualizzato ora e sei a posto. le posizioni sono diverse per gli utenti di Steam e non (solo dicendo)

Thanks man, i got a scare when i opened Loot and saw that my work is gone. Your method it worked well!
