As the title says, I decided to get rid of some animations in FNIS PCEA2, after deleting 4 animations and adding a new one in, to be specific, the animation I newly installed was Lifelike Idle Animations, I extracted the folder to my desktop and placed it into the FNIS PCEA2 and renamed it to 1_Lifelike Idle Animations. Then I clicked Deploy Mods option in vortex I was given the Vortex pop up that files were changed outside of Vortex and it showed 200.hkx files deleted, I clicked Save. Upon trying to boot up SKSE64 the window showed up for a split second and then disappeared. Now before I had installed the new animation mod I was constantly exiting and then booting up SKSE64 to check on the PCEA 2 MCM menu to see what animations were already inside of it so I know that SKSE64 only started crashing when i screwed around with FNIS PCEA2. I don't believe that I ran FNIS generator after changing the animation files so after the first time SKSE64 failed to boot up I ran the FNIS generator and I had no warnings or inconsistencies but upon trying to launch SKSE64, it still keeps failing launch. I haven't verified my cache through steam yet but I don't believe that's going to fix my problem. Aside from verifying my cache the only thing I can think to do is delete FNIS PCEA2 and hope that solves the SKSE64 failing to launch issue. Has anyone else had to deal with this sort of thing before? For anyone wondering, I accessed the FNIS PCEA2 folder by going into vortex, locating the mod and clicking the Open In File Manager. Edit: Just tried verifying steam cache, one file failed to validate, the game then auto updated but I have a mod that keeps the current version I play on, so SKSE64 shouldn't be affected by the update that was shoved down my throat.

OKAY, OKAY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT JUST HAPPENED! After uninstalling FNIS PCEA 2 and SKSE64 still wouldn't boot up I purged my entire modlist (The little vortex button that says Purge) and without checking to see if SKSE64 would boot up unmodded, I decided to redeploy my mod list and tried to open up SKSE64 and.... IT WORKED, SKSE64 LAUNCHED! Loading up my save in Skyrim and checking the MCM menu shows FNIS PCEA 2 but no animations are inside of it. I opened FNIS Data in File Manager and sure enough, clicking on Meshes - Actors - Character - Animations shows FNIS PCEA 2 and only 2 text documents. I'm scared to try reinstalling FNIS PCEA 2 now... And thanks rmm200 for taking the time to help out a random like me, sometimes just talking with another person can help figure things out. Not to mention he was getting awfully close to fixing the problem, lol.
