I can provide a mod list, but I think I'm over the minimum specs: If any one has any clue as to why this box shows up, I'd really appreciate it I don't know if it is related to running the game as admin, or steam as admin, or anything in particular (running everything as admin at the moment). When it does show up it's guaranteed to work 100%. When the game decides to actually work, before the loading screen, after clicking on New Game, I get a 'Patch Applied' text box, it doesn't always show and I'm pretty sure that's a critical part of the issue.

It *could* be related, but I'm just putting it out there in case anyone knows how to prevent the file from reverting back to read-only.Ģ. Disabling read-only mode gives me a 50/50 chance to make the game start.

plugins.txt keeps switching to read-only, despite editing attributes (using LOOT to sort confirms this, already tried bypassing launcher by renaming F4SE launcher). Experienced modding since TES3, and can tell it's not a mod issue (using NMM, 33 mods - I like to keep things vanilla with some QoL stuff).ġ. Using NMM to install a few mods, launching game, click on NEW GAME and it just loads infinitely.
