Can't find TESV file to launch SKSE [noob problem]

This feels like I'm overlooking a very basic problem. My mods barely work when launching Skyrim from it's own launcher, but the SKSE launcher gives the "Can't find TESV.exe' prompt.

The problem is that I can't find this file anywhere, in none of my folders, not even a broad search on my entire C drives shows anything.

The extensions are shown, so that's not the issue. I Googled for this and it seems people eventually always find the TESV file. I do have a "SkyrimSE" launcher, however. Could this be the file that is just renamed in the new version?

 

I also attempted to change the TESV in my skse.ini file to SkyrimSE.exe, yet I also don't have that file. I know you can create it yourself, but I've no clue what to write in it to make it launch from the SkyrimSE executable.

You need to install Skyrim to use SKSE and Skyrim mods.

As you only have SkyrimSE.exe, that means you have the Special Edition installed, which is a different game. There is no SKSE for it yet, and mods for it are here.

Wow I feel stupid now.

So basically the only thing I need to do is look for SE-specific mods?

 

Thank you anyway, for taking the time to even reply!
