You might be struggling just finding the right menu to click on, I know I struggle to get my head round the internet, on a daily basis, so I know how you must feel!

This is the page which you want:
http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Console_Commands_(Skyrim)/Enchantments

When you get somewhere from inputing a command into the console and a list of gobble-de-♥♥♥♥ appears, then you have done it right!

You'll see that the codes all come with a prefixed keyword or object keyword, stuff like that anyway. For Enchantments, Bethesda have prefixed those with: 'ENCH'. I suspect this is what you're looking for.

You can also spawn ready enchanted weapons that are kind of special weapons that you can find in your exploration. Well you can spawn those, but you should be VERY careful NOT to spawn a quest-related item that you should not yet be in possesion of. This can cause the game to have a brain fart and crash when you get within a few yards of the cell loading threshold - this is when your computer will notice that there are TWO of that unique item and because it requires you to do something first before it can go into your inventory, it might try to catch up to you, thinking you've done the quest!!! Then CTD.

This doesn't happen with much of the stuff but it can do if you use the console with certain special quest-related items, or even quest-related actions can also be affected in this way, so you really need to make sure you know what the item is before you spawn it.

Back to your query; There are commands for actually adding enchantments to items. You first need to get the item's ID. You can do this by dropping the item in front of you and then hitting console (tilde) then while console is up, click on the item in the screen and it's ID will appear on screen.

You now have the ID for that item and can then look for the ENCH, or enchantment which you wish to put on. Note, that you have to have a perk unlocked in order to put 2 enchantments on the same item, however, you might be able to bypass that by using the console. I mentioned this because I want you to know just how complex the game is and how console commands can affect positively and negatively other aspects of the game that you wouldn't normally think about.

Oh great! You managed to work it out YAY! :kitteh:

I'd love to know more about the Dragon who taught the man how to put two enchantments on, maybe the Dragon was chuckling about knowing about console Commands haha! :roar:

When I played Skyrim for the first time, I just went wandering off in the wilderness. I came upon a cave and found a flame enchanted sword. I loved that sword :)

I used to do that to :D
hehe! Yeah I love playing with the console. Aye, from the first time I broke the 4th wall, I have been in constant conflict with my conscience, but hehe, the console has been invaluable, especially to allow you to debug mods and stuff. A lot of people do machinima, I believe they call it? Good stuff :)

Anyway, glad you got the info u needed. Have fun! :kitteh:

another question fast , is it possible to increase the payout from thieves guild side never ending quest only getting around 150 coin per quest which is small and wont pay the ride there :S
I have no idea, but I wouldn't like to try to use the console for that. But you could simply console command in a load of gold into your inventory.

player.additem <ID for gold> 10000

found a easy way to make money make iron daggers enchant them with magical dmg and sell it for 150 each , I made 11k that way yesterday xD
Well then, at least you are putting in some kind of effort - maintaining immersion. I like that.
