Thersius Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 @Endlessdoom@donreyne I found a solution for this problem. To fix it, you must modify the installation path in the regedit: - Open up your Windows® Regedit.- Find this folder : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Bethesda Softworks/Skyrim - Extra step: If that doesn't exist create it. Also create a new string value and rename it into "Installed Path". Make sure you set the string value by your skyrim installation directory. example: "E:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Skyrim\" credits goes to Gussygoose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swagedelic Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 i just when on the C:\Users\Home\AppData\Local then looked for Skyrim copy everything on the loadorder.txt and paste it on the DLClist.txt(it should be in the same folder where you find the loadorder.txt) this is the txt file that shows up on the data files in your skyrim launcher.exe.. hope this helps :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luciandovahkiin Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 You can try to add to your SkyrimPrefs.ini (C:\Users\yourname\Documents\My Games\Skyrim) the following Line under [Launcher]: bEnableFileSelection=1i typed those already but the files in the data file doesn't appear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
