Serana glitch, Need help.
some time ago, i beat the dawnguard dlc
Did everything as i should've and i happened to dismiss serana. She said she would go to fort dawnguard and she did.
Went there to check on her because she had alot of my items on her and i wanted her and the items back but once i got to her, theres no dialogue option anymore. She just says "yes?" "Do you need something?"
Ive seen some commands for this but i think i need an in-depth help to get stuff sorted back (and no i dont have an old save file to go from there)
Thanks in advance

From https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Serana Bugs section:

"After being asked to "wait" or being dismissed as a follower, she may not have the option to follow again.
- This bug is fixed by version 2.0.2 of the Unofficial Dawnguard Patch. (or The Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch)
- Travel to Castle Volkihar and enter using the side Undercroft entrance. Wait a few seconds and Serana should appear behind you (and following already). If she doesn't, try using the Wait feature or exit the Undercroft and fast-travel to any location. When you arrive, Serana will be following you again.
- To bring back the "Come with me" dialogue after dismissing Serana, enter the code sqv DLC1NPCMentalModel in the console. You are given a long list of information. Scroll down the list using the page up and page down keys, and make sure that the following codes: CanFollow_var = True / IsFollowing_var = True / IsWaiting_var = True / TurnOffComeWithMe_var = False / LockedIn_var = False are in order by looking at the false/true (i.e., if LockedIn_var was set to true then you need to put it to false). To do this, enter the following command: setpqv DLC1NPCMentalModel LockedIn_var False. Once you do this you should be able to recruit Serana to be your follower again.
To get Serana following again after asking her to "Wait", go somewhere far away (like inside Fort Dawnguard) and wait three to five days.
- To fix this issue, enter the code sqv DLC1NPCMentalModel in the console. Scroll using the page up and page down keys to see whether IsWaiting_var = True. If so, set the value to "false" with the following console command: setpqv DLC1NPCMentalModel IsWaiting_var false. Serana should then follow at the distance set by her FollowDistance... variable values."

Good luck!

When i do the command: " sqvDLC1NPCMentalModel", i dont see the " IsWaiting_Var = True or any other ones. When i use page up or page down, it just types in the past commands ive tried.
