Skyrim menu white boxes. PLEASE HELP!
Hello, so I wanted to install some mods to skyrim and I tried it with vortex and mod organizer 1 and 2 (I always had issues and mods werent working). And I simply broke skyrim now everytime I want to play it the menu has wierd white boxes. I unistalled everything mods and skyrim and I even made the files coherent (it always says that it has 1 problem and its installed already). But the game still has the white boxes. Please help me I just want to play this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game. F*cks those mods.

sounds like either mod files still around or not all the original files are present.

uninstalling/reinstalling the game/mods does NOT remove folders/files created when the game runs.

All my files are fine. Now I downloaded Mod organizer 1 again and when I lunch the game from it everything works fine. But when I want to lunch it from the steam then the white boxes appears on the main menu.

I dont know what he meant with "unchecked folder" in data. Everytime im doing the Verify Integrity of Game Cache it says "unsuccessful verification of 1 file it will be downloaded again". And after that game main menu still has those weird white boxes instead of letters and when I do the scan again it gives the same message again and again. Its like a mod orgaznier took something and won't give it back, bc all my saves from the game are in mod organizer. welp I am forced to play through the mod organizer.....😭
On mod organizer in Archives there's box called "Have MO manage archives" and when its unchecked the game has the white boxes. And when its checked the game is working also when I installed mode via steamworkshop called SkyUi I got communication in game that "The Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE) is not running and SkyUI will not work correctly". Another thing I noticed is that I have everything in Polish (inventory, options, ui, etc.) This is good because I'm from Poland but the characters instead of speaking to me in Polish they talk in English. MY GOD WTH IS HAPPENING!

the 1 file missing is normal during steam verify game files. read here:

I do not mod enough to give advice so hopefully a mod organizer guru will post solutions/suggestions.

Do you think maybe if I bought a new skyrim and installed it on a new steam account then it would work?

users have been modding the original game since 2011 with mod organizer in languages other than English.
it is probably some setting/option that needs tweaking. up to you. wait for a mod guru to post a suggestion or buy skyrim se and mod that.

might try creating a new steam account and a new windows account. both are free.
then try modding the game with the new accounts first before buying anything.
or just try a new windows account. see if the game runs WITHOUT mods first

I have the exact same problem as in this thread and I do not know how to solve it. I'm using Mod Organizer V. 2, and ever since i downloaded it and installed a texture mod I've been having the problem of with white boxes in the Skyrim menu and I cant even press anything.
Damn me for trying to improve the game using texture mods and not just playing the game as it is already :((
