flameshiva Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Hello , I moved Skyrim to a different HD and while nexus can find the new path there is a setting that still thinks its in the old one when I select Skyrim as the game to be modded. So my question is how can I reset this ? If I need to I will just uninstall everything and start again but I thought I'd ask in case there is a simple way of doing this.

WastelandAssassin Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 If you mean NMM , when you open it up , there is an option to rescan installed gamesjust do this , and make sure NMM sees Skyrim in the new locationIf this doesn't help , please explain the exact problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameshiva Posted October 23, 2017 Author Share Posted October 23, 2017 Sorry if I didn't explain it very well. I mean I already tried that and when re-scanning installed games it detects Skyrim in the new D drive but when I select a game to mod (Skyrim) I get a message saying '' You are missing C/program files/steamapps/etc skyrim.esm is not present. So something in Nexus is still looking for Skyim in the C drive. Possibly when I first set the paths for the mods. I would like to change this anyway if possible.

WastelandAssassin Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 honestly not really sure what to tell youmaybe look at the settings menu of NMM , and see if this has Skyrim in the correct place?on another note , why did you move the game , if I may ask?because if it's a matter of limited space on your C drive , maybe you should switch to Mod Organizer , and set it to install mods to the D drive , while the game is in the original Steam installation foldernot sure if it's recommended to load mods from a different drive , but maybe it'll work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameshiva Posted October 23, 2017 Author Share Posted October 23, 2017 Its accessing Skyrim as normal now. The only thing i can think of which makes me feel a little clumsy if it is the reason is in restarting Nexus Mod Manager. :mellow: In any case you are right I am starting to run out of room on my SSD and I should look into how I can store mods in a different location. I also have Skyrim Special Edition Installed anyway so I only wanted to move default Skyrim instead of uninstalling for sentimental reasons :happy: . Thanks for replying BTW.
