Skyrim SKSE Can't find skyrimse.exe

[DrasticPup]

I started using SKSE and whenever I click on it from my desktop it says "Can't find skyrimse.exe"
Whenever I launch it from the directory folder, it launches fine.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance :D

You need to use SKSE64[skse.silverlock.org] for Skyrim Special Edition.

Note he said it can't find skyrimse, implying he is using skse64 as skse does not search for sse.

Your desktop icon is a shortcut to the skse64 located in the correct directory right? Not accidently pointing to the skse64.exe in your extracted folder?

The desktop shortcut is skse_loader.

SKSE64 is on the silverlocke page as version 2.0.6

Read the first part again.

Did you rename this shortcut? If not, spoopy is correct and you are not using skse64.

[DrasticPup]

I'm using skse64, and I didn't rename anything.

[Sinsling]

The skse64 exe is named skse64_launcher by default. Can you link us to whatever guide you used for installing skse64?

I know it is named as such because you have to rename the launcher to get NMM to detect it, as NMM is not made to use skse64 yet.

What do I need to rename it to?

Renaming won't help. It would help if you knew why the desktop shortcut doesn't have the original file name.

A fast fix would be to delete the desktop shortcut, right click the skse64_launcher.exe in the SSE folder, and select create shortcut. Try moving the new shortcut to the desktop, and see if it works.

It works! Thanks :D

Tbh, I probably should of mentioned that right away. Xp

Gays can someone help me in chat? I have some problems with SKSE too

I'm having the same problem. Is it possible to play Skyrim without SKSE until one figures something out?
