so it's all working from Vortex now?

if so , can you please explain what you've done? in case I see others with similar issues , I want to be able to either direct them here or just tell them what needs to be done

well basically, do as stated with the SKSE installation (obviously) set SKSEloader.exe to run as admin all the time in the properties, next click Dashboard in Vortex then click Add tool, go to you skyrim directory where skseloader.exe is and add it to vortex next click play under Skseloader.exe from Vortex dashboard and it should work!

While running as administrator can be a necessary evil for old windows-2000-games, if you need to run SKSE, Skyrim or any of it's tools as administrator you've got a broken setup and you should fix this broken setup.

 

Now for me to get SKSE to work with SSE, I had to go into my virus/protection software and add skse64_loader.exe + the two accompanying dll-files to the "excluded from scanning"-option. After doing this, SKSE started working.

This wasnt for SKSE itself to work my skse works perfectly fine, this was to get SKSE to work with Vortex because i would get the error popup saying it wasnt found

thanks for verifying this

I'll try to relay this to others if I see similar errors

 

and of course glad it's finally working out for you

enjoy your game :)

From my post a page back

 

In order to run SKSE64 from Vortex, click on DASHBOARD

 

Click ADD TOOL

 

Navigate to the SKSE64_loader.exe in your Skyrim SE folder.
Click OK, now you should have a rectangle to the right of your SKyRim SE profile, in Vortex on the DASHBOARD.

 

NOW, here's the important part, you need to click the Three vertical Dots in the rectangle for SKSE64, and pick MAKE PRIMARY.

Now, whenever you start SkyRim SE from Vortex using the "Play" button, it will run SKSE64_Loader.exe because you made it PRIMARY.
