Frozium Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 My Skyrim is fucked because I didn't take care of all the mods I installed. How can I reset Skyrim to vanilla so I can start modding again? REMEMBER: Everything must be vanilla again
SirNibbles Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Well...reinstall it? :3 Easiest most securing way to ensure it's vanilla again.
myuhinny Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 If you installed the mods through NMM (nexus mod manager) then there is no way to reset to vanilla other then deleting the whole skyrim folder then uninstall it and then reinstall it back. If you installed everything through MO (mod organizer) not quite sure on it as I don't use it but your game folder will be safe because it makes a virtual folder. So I think you can just delete the virtual one and then redo it.
Guest MonsterFish Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 If you're using NMM, remove steamlibrary/steamapps/common/skyrim/data If you're using MO, remove ModOrganizer/mods

Frozium Posted January 21, 2016 Author Posted January 21, 2016 Well...reinstall it? :3 Easiest most securing way to ensure it's vanilla again. That doesn't work. Proven with FO:NV If you installed the mods through NMM (nexus mod manager) then there is no way to reset to vanilla other then deleting the whole skyrim folder then uninstall it and then reinstall it back. If you installed everything through MO (mod organizer) not quite sure on it as I don't use it but your game folder will be safe because it makes a virtual folder. So I think you can just delete the virtual one and then redo it. Well' time to delete and reinstall If you're using NMM, remove steamlibrary/steamapps/common/skyrim/data If you're using MO, remove ModOrganizer/mods Oh, so that's why people say MO is better This is just what you need. I used it before: http://wiki.step-project.com/Guide:Make_Skyrim_Vanilla_Again OK, thanks
Wartoot Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 For a true clean install, dont forget to clean the C/users/(yourname)/documents/my games/skyrim folder
xoriandruid Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 No all you need to do is unclick the mods from mo, there is never left over stuff with mo thats why the installing and uninstalling is set up this way in the first place. There is no point in redownloading every single mod again.
