Help - Game Version 1.1.47.0

[LanceLSP]

I just bought this game over the weekend as it is a good discount. I only bought the Special Edition not the Anniversary version. After I download and install, the game version is 1.1.47 instead of the most current version. I thought the Steam would update the version automatically but nothing happened after 2 days. Any suggestions?

Side note: I would play the old version but there is a pretty bad bug in the 1st scene that the horse (who carrying those poor people to be executed) stuck in the gate and the gate won't open.

The most current version of the game is 1.6.353
Check your game executable which is located here:
\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition

Look for SkyrimSE.exe then right click on it and select "Properties" then the "Details" tab and look at "Product version.

As far as SE is concerned it's all Skyrim Special Edition

The base game now comes with 4 Creation Club items which are; Fishing, Saints & Seducers, Rare Curios, and Survival Mode in celebration of Skyrim's 10th Anniversary.

What you are calling the "Anniversary Edition" is actually an Upgrade that costs $20.00 and consists of all of the above plus another 70 Creation Club items packaged into a Anniversary DLC. The version is also 1.6.353

The bug you are referring to is a FPS bug, make sure your FPS does not exceed 60

there are mods that fix the bug as well
Prisoner Cart Opening Fix

When you install mods you do have to be version aware as many mods have 2 versions
1 for game version 1.5.97
1 for game version 1.6.353 - some mod authors call this version "AE". Blame that on Bethesda's bad marketing. But for 1.6.353 you would want to install the version marked as for "AE".

Thank you, Vlad. Yes, I checked the "Properties" of the SkyrimSE.exe and the product version shows 1.1.47.0. Is there way to manually upgrade it? I don't know why Steam won't update it automatically when I downloaded it.

Have you launched the game?

Also verifying file integrity would probably do it.

I found out why - I didn't select English as the default language - after I switch the language to English, the game starts updating!
