VulcanTourist Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 HadToRegister you literally just described step by step what i did to uninstall the game in the first place which was described prior... "after purging the skyrim directory of loose files"The way you worded it seems to communicate that you were selective and didn't delete the entire Skyrim Special Edition directory hierarchy entirely. If that is true, we can't help wondering if you missed something in trying to be selective. If you did indeed delete the root directory before reinstalling, then the base install at least would be pristine. What about the game's data files elsewhere? Did you remember to deal with the files in \AppData\Local\ and \Documents\My Games\? I also don't recall you mentioning what mod manager you use, and that might have an impact after the fact, depending on how it operates. I am reasonably familiar with Vortex; if you were using that with default settings then the hardlinks it places when it "deploys" would be erased by removing the game's root directory. Other mod managers and how they might handle virtualization are not familiar to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"after purging the skyrim directory of loose files" so yes i did do that. became habit after modding new Vegas for so long with way more success than this crap. will still try it probably months later and ill probably be right back here with either the same problem or a slightly different one just you watch. ive given up for now "Even purging the Skyrim directory of Loose files" does NOT equal "DELETING the ENTIRE Skyrim Directory. I said to DELETE the Skyrim Directory completely.Not "Purge it of loose files", because there are other folders such as the INTERFACE folder, the SCRIPTS folder, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worm82075 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 there is a simple way to fix this problem. Open the CK and find the Grey beards robes. If the Hood is separate then go there and and tick hair and long hair in the biped slot list to completely remove their hair when their robes/hood are equipped. save. problem solved.
