    Installing SkyUI on Skyrim anervsary edition 1.6.1170.0. Windows 10. I get the error

    "error code 1
    The Skyrim script extender is not running.
    skyui will not work"

    This was after uninstalling Skyrim, then I ran Skyrim to the start page to install the anniversary files.

    I added the following three mods (only) using Vortex. Then skse from https://skse.silverlock.org/, Current Anniversary Edition build 2.2.6.

    SkyUI_5_2_SE - 5.2SE
    Quest Journal Fixes - FOMOD - 1.0
    Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch - 4.2.5b

    Here is my SSE version https://ibb.co/09mqqnX note the file version 1.6.1170.0.
    Here is my Skyrim root directory https://ibb.co/2KqK8pK Note that skse64_1_6_1170.dll matches the Skyrim version.

    I then ran Skyrim by hitting return on the selected skse64_loader.exe file.

      A post suggested using SkyUI_2_2 from le. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/3863?tab=files in old files.

      This worked in that I did not get the error message and the game started. But I got a crash to desktop the first time I hit the Esc key.

      Thank you for your help, but the install guide in the Sticky has been followed.

      "1. SKSE must be updated to version 2.2.6 for the Steam edition of the game. GOG users must update to version 2.2.6 for the GOG edition of the game "
      Done see screenshots

      "2. Use the latest version of USSEP if you use this mod."
      4.2.5b is the latest version of USSEP.

      "3 Add the Quest Journal Fix for SkyUI to address changes to the menu structure by Bethesda"
      Quest journal fixes added as listed above.

      "Update any dll-based SKSE plugins to 1.6.117x versions. Mods that have not been updated must be disabled."
      There are no dll-based mods. It is a minimum install with only what is needed for SkyUI.

      "4. If using Engine Fixes (or any other SKSE plugin that requires Address Library), Address Library must be updated to the 1.6.117x version. Also make sure you are using Engine Fixes Part 1 version 6.2."
      Engine fixes are not being used. It is a minimum install with only what is needed for SkyUI.

      Is Steam open in the background when you launch via skse64_loader.exe?

      Great news I managed to get it working.

      I installed the Constellation vortex collection - which I knew had SkyUI working after downgrading to 1.6.160. So they must be doing something right. I disabled all mods then added SkyUI and realted mods until it all worked. 
       
       I then reinstalled Skyrim 1.6.1170 and updated with just the mods from Constellation which got SkyUI to work, updated to 1170; and it worked!!! So:

      Unofficial Skyrim Special Eiditon Patchy version 4.3.1
      SkyUI_5_2_SE version 5.2SE
      SkyUI 3D item Ofset Fix - MCM Helper version 1.1.0
      Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE64) version 2.2.6
      MCM Helper version 1.5.0
      All in one Address Library(Annicersary Edition) version 11

      These together created a working SkyUI with 1.6.1170. Possibly not all are needed feel free to experiment.

    I can use MB4 in the game's keybinding (but not MB3), but neither of them work in any MCM. Is there any way to make MB3 and 4 available for MCMs?

    I'm encountering issues setting up favorite groups correctly in my game. While I can designate weapons, potions, shields, and spells as favorites, the functionality seems to be malfunctioning. When attempting to assign a favorite item to a slot hotkey group using (F), I encounter several problems:

    1. The (T) Save Equip State function isn't functioning as intended.
    2. I'm unable to register groups using both items equipped in the right and left hand for dual-wielding. Only one hand is registered.
    3. Clicking on the group categories at the bottom of the Favorites menu (or using the Focus hotkey) reveals no items to assign, nor are there any hotkey buttons available for interaction.
    4. Despite registering selected items at the bottom in hotkey slots 1, 2, 3, etc., they aren't numbered in the favorites menu (Q).
    5. The Favorites Hotkeys, which are supposed to assign numerical hotkeys 1-8, aren't working at all.

    How can I resolve these issues?

      UPDATE: I forgot to do a hotkey Assignment

      Apologies for the oversight. It seems I neglected to assign hotkeys to individual items, which is crucial for efficient management. To rectify this, follow these steps:

      1. Favorite Selection: First, ensure each item in your inventory is assigned as a favorite. This ensures its visibility in the Presets menu.
         - To designate an item as a favorite, select it and press the "R" key to equip, then press "F" to mark it as a favorite.

      2. Accessing Presets: Open the Favorites menu by pressing "Q".

      3. Group Selection: Navigate through the types of groups using the "A" and "D" keys or use the mouse to click on the group icon.

      4. Item Selection: Locate the desired item within the chosen group by using the "W" and "S" keys to move up and down or by hovering over it with the mouse.

      5. Adding to Group: Press the designated "Group Item" key (for me, it's "F") to initiate the process.
         - Next, use the "A" and "D" keys or your mouse to select the specific group you wish to add the item to.
         - Click on the group or its respective option to confirm the addition.

      6. The newly added item should now be visible within the selected group at the bottom of the menu.

      7. Prepare the item for use by pressing the "E" key or using the mouse.

      8. Saving State: To solidify these settings, press the appropriate key (for me, it's "T"), which typically corresponds to the item reload function.
         - Upon successful saving, a letter denoting the assigned hand should appear alongside the active item(s) to the right.

      Remember, adherence to this sequence ensures smooth and efficient organization:

      - Equip and mark items as favorites (R and F keys).
      - Access the Favorites menu (Q).
      - Navigate group types (A and D keys or mouse).
      - Select desired item (W and S keys or mouse).
      - Add item to group (Group Item key and selection).
      - Confirm addition and view in group.
      - Prepare item for use (E key or mouse).
      - Save state for future reference (T key or equivalent).

    After years of not playing Skyrim, I reinstalled and I've been trying to get SkyUI to work with the correct version of SKSE for the Steam version of Skyrim for hours and hours, and nothing. The game would either crash when accessing the main menu or the items menu or it simply wouldn't apply SkyUI to the game. I finally found a fix and I didn't read it anywhere here. I was using Vortex to manage and download mods and that was my main problem, I tried everything else that was listed on the guide and on the comments, tried installing both manually and automatically. Then I started using Mod Organizer 2 instead of vortex and boom. Everything works fine. If you encounter the same scenario I recommend trying that out.

    Can someone offer any advice or help for me here. I Can't get the MCM menu to work. I've got SkyUI downloaded and the Latest version of SKSE that works for Skyrim is downloaded and everything is installed properly or according to the .readme files and when i hit ESC to open the menu and click on MCM it just sits there on the "main" screen for it without showing any of the mods that use the menu and i cant figure out how to get it to work properly. Is anyone could offer up advice or anything to help that would be great.

    I've been trying to figure this out for a few days and have read over the sticky like 6 times with no luck.
    I have the 1.6.1170.0 version of Skyrim SE, I have the Steam 2.2.6 version of SKSE64 installed through Vortex via drag and dropping the ZIP, I installed SkyUI 5.2 with Vortex, then I ran Skyrim SE through the SKSE Loader in the directory (the Steam Client is idling in the background). SKSE is loaded, but no changes to the menus. I've got v1.6.1130+ USSEP, Quest Journal Fix, the 1.6.1179.0 Address LIbrary (since its 1.6.117x and the 1170 version is archived so I can't download it), the 1.6.1170+ SSE Engine Fixes, and the SkyUI 5.2 SE Plugin with Master Added. All of them are installed as described in their descriptions and seem to be the correct versions.
    However, I do not have any SkyUI menu changes, and when opening the escape menu I get an immediate CTD.

      Check your skse64.log for errors.  You may have another mod that is out of sync with your game version.

    I've updated SkyUI, I've completely reinstalled SKSE64 from Silverlock, I've updated USSEP, yet SkyUI is STILL giving me the "SKSE isn't updated so SkyUI won't work" message.  Is there some issue with SkyUI and the current patch?  It doesn't matter what I do it is still bugged to hell.

      Please carefully read the install guide linked in the sticky. Every word is important. If you are on Skyrim version 1.6.1170 be sure to read the 117x notes.

      @Wolfpack49 could you please stop giving this response to everyone? It's not helpful in any way. I can personally confirm following every step on that page twice over now (having uninstalled and reinstalled everything) and am still getting the code 1 error. You're not being helpful. If this many people are having that issue even after following all the steps with a magnifying glass to make sure we are reading extra closely, then maybe there is some other issue that needs to be sorted out and just pretending like the solution is on that page only hinders any potential progress that could be made

      Error Code 1 invariably means you have installed skse64 incorrectly or you have failed to launch using skse64_loader.exe with Steam open in the background. There is no 'alternative explanation' for Error Code 1, and everything needed to address it is detailed in the install guide. There is zero need to provide you with a custom answer, the answer will always be the same: install skse64 correctly and launch the game correctly. If you choose to read carelessly, then that's on you. Good luck, I'm sure you will figure it out eventually.

      Literally every other mod loads fine and I've checked the skse version in console commands and it says 2.2.6. I'm using mod loader 2 to launch the game. I've done everything you've said. Why is SkyUI the ONLY mod not loading. Saying someone is reading carelessly isn't helping anyone. You're choosing to ignore what people are saying because you can't accept that there could be another issue. If console commands is saying I have the proper skse loaded, and every other mod that requires it is loading fine, and I've gone over everything in the troubleshooting with a fine tooth comb, then either be helpful or stop repeating the same thing to everyone. All you're doing is deterring people from asking questions.

      As far as launching the game correctly, I can launch it through mod loader according to the guide or I can launch it from the Skyrim folder using the skse launcher. Both are giving the same result.

      Sounds like you're missing the step where you move the data folder with the .pex files into your root game directory, i was having the same problem but that did the trick, hope it helps, happy modding.

      Did not miss this, it's in my skyrim se data folder proper. I'm currently in the process of uninstalling and deleting all files and starting again. Just wanted a fresh start before trying something a little different and seeing if it causes any new results

      @Wolfpack49 Found the solution on my own and it had nothing to do with any instructions in the install guide. I included the solution in my post for anyone else that finds themselves in a similar situation.

      @wolfpack49 I had been doing tons of research and as far as I could tell from everything I read linux doesn't have any different install instructions, everything runs fine, and Mod Organizer 2 has native linux support. And it's true, it doesn't have different install instructions, it was simply a problem of misnamed folders. It was completely within reason for me to assume it was an irrelevant detail. Had I told you I had linux how would that have changed your response? Would you have then known the issue? I'd bet money it'd have said the same thing, though I doubt you'll admit it.

      Every actually helpful person I've dealt with in a forum generally responds by asking follow up questions like, "What are your system specs?" Because someone may not consider a certain thing important that actually is, and any extra info is helpful. This is why just repeating, "read the guide," isn't helpful, it gives no one any extra information. That kind of response is just designed to make people feel dumb and stop them from asking questions, and helps no one. It's so easy to just not do that kind of stuff and yet for some reason you still have people who go out of their way to do it.

    Hello
    There is a problem when I play, even though skyui itself is running well.
    The problem is that the game crashes after a few minutes.
    Please help me to fix this problem.
