Should I use BOSS and Wrye Bash?

[Casul Gamer]

So far Skyrim seems to be working fine with all of my mods, but I'm coming across mods saying I need BOSS and Wrye Bash. I'm wondering how hard it is to use these two utilities. I'm afraid I'm going to screw something up if I install them. Do these work automatically or do I have to do everything manually? So far I've just decided not to use the new mods that require BOSS and Wrye Bash.

BOSS just has a button that you press and it automatically sorts your load order based on community feedback. [even a toddler can use Boss; just click the button]

Wrye Bash is a bit more difficult, but you can use Wrye Bash just for the "Bash Patch" feature.
unfortunately, this will require that your Skyrim game is installed outside of the Program Files folder [it can still work if installed inside the Program Folder, but it can take some tinkering to do].
Although, Wrye Bash is pretty essentials if you want to use many "conflicting" mods [mods that change leveled lists]. As Wrye Bash is the ONLY utility that exists that allows this possibility

Thanks for the info, guys. I think I need to avoid the impulse to keep installing more mods :D

Simple version only
Boss shows load order and dirty edits
TES5Edit or WYRE BASH can clean these dirty edits(I mainly use TES5Edit)
WYRE BASH will make a bash mod to link esm's and esp's and update it when you clean.
Note you must verify game after each cleaning session as some files may need updates (I found in my case 66mbs)
Recheck BOSS and dirty edits will not show, only active will be on and bash tags in those files cleaned. Hint - never clean SKYRIM.esm only its UPDATE and DLC's.
Also it is daunting task when you first do it but once known it is easy after that.
