How to remove broken items from Inventory that dont even appear but take away weight because of missing name?
As the title says i currently can carry 475 weight, 100 weight is my gear, stuff, potions etc, and i noticed if i sold everthing but my gear i currently carry 200 weight. So i figured out i must have picked up broken items with missing names that i have in my inventory but wont appear to sell or drop. Only way to see them is if i go to a sharpening stone. Then it shows i carry 2 missing name axe ( old north axe ) and 4 missing name axe ( ebony ore axe). i can upgrade them to legendary with my smith skills and a bar but that is all.

So my question is since these 6 broken items with missing name that take away carry weight and i cant sell or drop them and only can see them if i use a sharpening stone. is there a way to get rid of these items, drop, sell or somehow cleanse my inventory so get back my correct weight so im not overloaded 22/7.

i know its not a big game breaking bug but i fear if i keep getting items with no names that my inventory gets fuller and fuller of those and then im gonna end up overloaded even with empty inventory.

If there is a way to cleanse my invetory of these bugged weapons pls leave a comment :)
thx

Edit: I assume it will be fixed if i commit a crime and get arrested so all my stuff ends up in a chest? But is that if it really works, the only way ?

You need to figure out why those items are broken. Is it a mod conflict issue, missing patch, or are your official files busted and in need of validation through Steam?

I would just blatantly use console to get rid of these items.

Showinventory command to see what is actually in there and their IDs.
Drop <base ID> <amount> to drop bugged item.

Hmm... now we need to know if those bugged items are from base game or from DLC.

If they are from base game, then validate your official files through Steam client.

If they are from DLC, then you might need to download those files from Bethesda's servers again.

I would do this, except instead of dropping it, I would remove the items:

player.removeitem itemId #

For example, if you want to drop 4 ebony war axes you'll have to type:
player.removeitem 000139AB 4

Anyone want to place bets on OP not having any issues at all and he's not carrying "broken items with missing names?" and he's just missing something or not interpreting something right? :steamfacepalm:

Does this completly remove the items with Missing names from the Game or WhatsApp the difference between your Methode and the Methode of the First comment ?

Dropped items will eventually despawn.
Removed items will be removed from the inventory ASAP.

Unless you have bugged cells in the game, then use either one. I recommended Drop, because there is a chance that you might fix the issue and dropped items might be recoverable - if needed.

Really big thx to both of you Guys for the Help. I'll try to drop the items First and try to find and fix the issue, maybe validate again. And If IT doenst Work i'll completly remove them

I thought I knew all the quirks from the game, but this was a new one.
Thanks for Elfisio for the tip. I'll keep that in mind for the future.
