Blackreach glitch (most annoying EVER!!!)
Hi guys,
I know people have posted previously about the lift glitch in Blackreach, but mine is slightly different, and all the "tricks" to fix it don't seem to work.

After I activated the Great Lift of Something (worked fine) I went back down into Blackreach, but after random amounts of time (between 5 seconds and about 2 mins max) it keeps teleporting me back to either the lift entrance/exit in Blackreach or in outside in Skyrim (with the lift sound when it does it). No matter where I go it will teleport me to one of these two locations and I cannot find a way out of this loop, it's driving me insane!!! Has anyone else experienced this? I haven't got any recentish saves I can be arsed to go back to, so if I can't get this fixed, I think it sadly maybe the glitch that broke the camels back.

Don't know what to say about that particlur glitch. Try doing something else that isn't in Black reach for a bit, maybe that will help.

I have been to Blackreach with no problems, sounds like it may be specific to you.

Don't know if anyone will see this) For me this bug happens at 2second intervals so I can't even move. I have found ways to stop it, just open up one of your menus or the steam in-game tab and keep it open long enough for your character to be ported and it should stop when you exit items list or steam tab

Disable automatic game saving before using any lift, and enable it againg once you are inside/outside blackreach.

I did try that, but by the time I turned off auto save, it'd already teleported me about 10 times and thus wiped out all my saves. Couldn't find a way to stop it, so now uninstalled, probably for good unfortunately.

If you still exist anymore,

The only cure is to revert savefs.

I just started again! played for a good 10+ hours, and got bored of even more glitches. I've now uninstalled, never to be installed again!

Tried everything at the time, couldn't fix it.

Have an update to this decade old thread. Assuming no one else has jumped on the anniversary edition and because this is still the number one search, I found a fix on gamefaqs. I gave up on this game like 6 years ago because I couldn't break this glitch.

I go into my items inventory and click on favourites. Didnt work the first time so I did it again and it worked. Im free!
