If you want to read that all again using different words (which sometimes helps immensely in figuring this stuff out), there's a short article on the Nexus Wiki: How to install Skyrim mods. Once you've told Skyrim about a plugin file, it remembers, so you only have to do this once for a new mod, assuming it has plugin files. Make sure your new mod's plugin files have checkmarks, hit OK to close that window, and then click "Play" to enjoy. There will be a list of things, including Skyrim.esm, with checkboxes beside them. So if there are plugin files, the launcher will let you activate them if you click on "Data Files".

If there weren't any (for example, most texture mods that don't add new items won't have a plugin file), then Skyrim will find the mod files all by itself and you're done. esm files (these are "plugin" files), you need to tell Skyrim to load these up when it starts. (If you're on Windows XP, you may want to disable UAC to simplify this process, since the game folder is in a UAC-protected area.) You want to be looking for folders like textures and meshes, and files that end in. Same thing if your unpacked mod has a Data folder-you don't want to put that in your Data folder (which would end up with a Data/Data/ layout that doesn't work), you want to put what's inside it in your Data folder. If you have a folder named like the mod, don't put that folder in your Data folder-you want to put the contents in your Data folder. If they're not clear about what files to put there, you have to look a bit closer at the mod. If they tell you to put files in "your Data folder", they mean there. They mean \Steam\SteamApps\common\skyrim\Data. Sometimes the mod author will tell you to "put the files in your data folder" and you'll swear at them for not explaining what that is.
This will tell you what you need to do to install the mod correctly. Look inside the freshly unzipped mod folder. If you have the option of multiple file formats, pick "7zip", the one that end with. You'll want to use 7zip for this, because it can handle the popular archiving formats that Skyrim modders pack their mods with. Here's the simplified overview of how to install a mod manually:ĭownload the mod you want to install and unpack it to a temporary folder. Most mods are simple and it's just a matter of putting the right files in the right place.

Since it's beta-quality software and you've probably just run into a bug, I'd advise learning how to cut out the middleware and install mods manually. In the meantime, it might help to know that a mod manager is optional-you can install mods without ever touching Nexus Mod Manager. If there are installation problems, they'll want to know about it and it's more likely to be fixed there than by asking here. If you're experiencing problems with it, consider reporting the problem so that the coders and other users on the official beta feedback forum can read about it and any bugs can be fixed.
First things first before I get to the advice: Nexus Mod Manager is beta software.
