Current classic build 1.7.3: install via steam - installer - 7z archive (readme, whatsnew)

Current SE build 2.0.17 (runtime 1.5.97): 7z archive

New to modding. Should I download through NMM or manually? It seems like whenever I download through NMM it's alot slower. Is this an intentional feature for non-premium members? Then use NMM, that simple. Manual installing is trivial for some mods that only install an ESP/ESM and a BSA, but it's next to impossible when you start using mods. Jun 19, 2018  So I wanted to know if I can start Skyrim without having to log into Steam every time using SKSE. I use Nexus Mod Manager and even if I select Launch SKSE instead of Launch Skyrim (through official launcher) I still have to sign in to launch the game. I understand why its there, and it never was. Feb 05, 2018  When logged in, you can choose up to 12 games that will be displayed as favourites in this menu.

• Manual Download with NMM. Start NMM and click on Mods. In the left icon bar, click on Add Mod From File and select the downloaded archive file. No Enchantment Restrictions will now appear in the list. Double-click to Activate it. OR Manual Installation.
• But there is no option for manual download so I can install mod manually if it would be offered as it is on official SKSE site. I had Vortex on my computer and I'm still dissatisfied with its performance.

Current VR build 2.0.10 (runtime 1.4.15): 7z archive

Having trouble extracting the archive? Install via Steam, use the installer, or download 7-zip. DO NOT USE ANYTHING FROM THE WINDOWS APP STORE.

Compatibility:
SKSE will support the latest version of Skyrim available on Steam, and only this version (currently 1.9.32 with any other numbers following). It is extremely unlikely that any future non-SE Skyrim updates will be released.

Having crashes on startup after a game patch? Remove the files from Data/SKSE/Plugins and try again. Mods using plugins probably need to be updated.
Before contacting us, make sure that your game launches properly without SKSE first. Also, attach skse.log, skse_loader.log, and skse_steam_loader.log (found in My Documents/My Games/Skyrim/SKSE/) to any support requests.
