Uninstalling certain mods causes Skyrim to crash as soon as I open the

[Putzie]

As the title says, I'm experiencing crashes whenever starting Skyrim after uninstalling certain mods, most notably Phenderix's Magic Evolved and Dragons Diversified mods.

I'm just wondering what causes this issue and what can I do about it?

(I don't use that mod)

remember, every install, uninstall or upgrade a mod, you must follow the step (some mod use console code, lesser power to uninstall, clean save), because lot of mod in Skyrim (especially gameplay mods) use script. if you did not uninstall mod properly, that script will attached to your save http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/thumbsup.gif

I'm aware of this, but I checked and neither of the two mods I named mention anything about needing any special actions performed before uninstalling them.

So I'm still clueless as to what the problem is.

I'm having the same problem with Phenderix's Magic Evolved. It crashes right after the Bethesda logo. Anyone knows what's going on?

I have the same issue with item sorting and weightless items mod. I really don't see why, it's a very simple mod that is loaded before any other mod fiddling with item names etc that I have. If anything deinstalling it should prevent CTDs not cause them.

Additionally, it's one of the few mods I installed via workshop (most of my mods come from nexus). However I deinstalled 3 other mods which came from workshop at the same time. Only resubcribing this one would solve the problem.

Due to the way Papyrus scripts are baked into your save, there's no sure way you can remove mods from a save. The only way to truly "uninstall" a mod is to go back to a save before you started using it, otherwise crashes, lag and save bloat can occur.
