i use that mod but you wont find a spell just called "Arcanum" its a pack of spells that have different spells in them sometimes at a jarls court wizard or in a chest after killing a boss in a dungeon or something just do some quest or look around see what you can find on your own and after making some gold by selling junk armor/weapons and stuff you dont need go see if the stores have them (they take a few ingame days to be in the store inventory) so you might find them then

Have you visited the Court mages? or the mages of Winterhold? I know you have visited vendors, but those are the ones who specifically sell spells.

Edit: just a thought, you have checked the books part of what they are selling, since you buy a spell tome not a spell?

Then it quickly comes down to: Post your load order and see if anyone can spot something.

Most of us use LOOT for this, even if they use MO2 or vortex, which has the LOOT sorting function. LOOT has a three dot symbol for copying your load order which you can then paste into a post.https://loot.github.io/

Also check the modpage for info I mean sometimes the author doesn't bother to add them in the leveled lists. Then the only way is to obtain them by console command.

No! I said it's in the right place, that isn't the problem.

You can't delete mods mid playthrough, skyrim bakes data from mods into saves, deleting a mod is a really bad idea.

What I was saying is your first five and last mod are ok... I'm not familiar with the other mods.

Btw, I found yesterday 2 scrolls, one is wizardfire and second spawns some earth spike on the floor. Ive never seen such spells, are they from arcanum mode?

[Ozymandias]

Nope, well at least Apocalypse does have wizardfire and earth spikes...

You have Arcanum and Apocalypse installed. Two mods that change leveled lists and i don't see a bashed patch in your load order. Since Apocalypse is below Arcanum in your load order and seems to work i suppose you need create a bashed patch to make the two play together nicely. I use WryeBash to that effect, but don't know if Vortex or NMM can do it on their own. Also look up a tutorial in order to get it right. It seems complicated at first, but really isn't.

From the mod descriptions:
Arcanum: Most of the spells contained in this mod can be bought from vendors, and are seamlessly integrated into the leveled lists of magic merchants.
Apocalypse: Apocalypse is seamlessly integrated into Skyrim. The spells, scrolls and staves can be bought and looted from the same sources as vanilla spells of the same school and level. After you install Apocalypse, any spell vendors will start selling the appropriate spell tomes once they restock their inventory (when left alone for 48 hours).
