MODS NOT WORKING

[Prince_Zodiac]

None of my mods will enable in game. I have tried everything.

1. I have uninstalled and reinstalled

2. I have re-enabled and re-deployed

3. I have tried both deployment methods

4. I have tried that new trick with the skyrim engine fix, turning the achievements, savesound, and savescreenshots to false

I have been at this for days, someone please help

Are you using a mod manager ? .

Run Skyrim as an admin
Give yourself Full Control permissions on your Skyrim folder

What is meant by "deployed"/"deployment" here? (I assume it's simply not a term I'm familiar with, but the clarity would be useful.)

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/6194 is pretty useful in my own experience, OP.
Are you using this, or something else, to install your Skyrim mods?

Additionally, are you using https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/439/ to auto-sort your modlist?

The bummer here is that it could be 1 or 2 mods out of dozens causing your issues.

So, "basic" mods that do things like add a new weapon or a piece of armor, are mods that don't usually alter game physics, or create conflicts (like having 2 buildings from 2 different mods in the same place.) So they tend to be safer/easier/less of an impact.

So maybe start with one "basic" mod and see if the game works, if it does keep adding mods and testing 1 at a time. (Add a mod, enable, launch game, play for a few moments, repeat with the next mod.) This method is a grind, but makes it easier to identify which mods nuke the game.

I have 150 mods ATM and I now add them all manually and one at a time. Since I started using this method, I have fewer issues.

You could disable all the mods and try activating one at a time.

good luck

If you have installed your mods correctly but they are not enabled in game, your issue may be related to SSE Engine Fixes. See the following -

I tried following those steps but after installing the SSE mod nothing has been fixing my mods not being read. I even tried uninstalling it with no luck. Do you have any advice?

How are you installing your mods? Are you using a mod manager?
