Your problem is quite obvious.

You didn't open the SKSE archive and extract the files, and instead extracted the entire SKSE FOLDER into your game directory.

The path "D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\skse64_2_00_16\skse64_loader.exe" should NOT exist.

 

It should be D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\skse64_loader.exe

 

READ the installation instructions in the SKSE archive, you CANNOT install SKSE like a mod without doing a bunch of steps first.

 

It's much easier to just manually install it

(From the Installation instructions included in the SKSE 7z file)

 

 

SKSE install

[ Installation ]

1. Copy the .dll and .exe files to your Skyrim SE directory. This is usually in your Program Files folder under Steam\SteamApps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\. If you see files named SkyrimSE and SkyrimSELauncher, this is the correct folder. Do not copy these files to the Data folder as with a normal mod. The "src" folder is only useful for programmers, most users can ignore it.

2. Copy the .pex files in Data\Scripts\ into the Data\Scripts\ folder of your installation. The .pex files are needed by all users of SKSE.
