Error Code 1: The Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE) is not running...

Problem

You didn't install the Skyrim Script Extender (or you installed it incorrectly).

Solution

Get SKSE from http://skse.silverlock.org/ and follow the installation instructions included in the readme file.

If you have problems installing or running SKSE, have a look at Gopher's video guide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTGnQIiNVqA

Error Code 2: SKSE is outdated...

Problem

The SKSE version you are using is too old. You may run into this error after upgrading SkyUI without upgrading SKSE as well.

Solution

Install the latest SKSE version as described in the previous solution.

Error Code 3: SKSE scripts are outdated...

Error Code 4: Your Papyrus INI settings are invalid...

Problem

One, or more, of your Papyrus INI variables are set to invalid values. There are several tweaking guides and INI generators out there that propagate setting these to out-of-range values. As a result, SkyUI or other event-based mods can start behaving erratically.

Solution

Open My Documents/My Games/Skyrim/Skyrim.ini with a text editor and reset the following values to their respective defaults

[Papyrus] 
iMinMemoryPageSize=128
iMaxMemoryPageSize=512
iMaxAllocatedMemoryBytes=76800

You may also have to reset these values in SkyrimCustom.ini, if it exists, which is in the same directory.

For details on the meaning of these settings, see http://www.creationkit.com/INI_Settings_(Papyrus)

Error Code 5: Incompatible menu file...

  • You didn't uninstall an old version of SkyUI before upgrading to 3.0 or newer. See the Uninstallation section and make sure you really removed everything, and then install the new version again.
  • There's another mod that overrides a particular menu file SkyUI is using as well. If this is the case, you'll have to pick one of the two mods.

If you want another mod to be able to override certain menu files of SkyUI while keeping the rest, you can disable these warning messages individually in the SkyUI configuration menu ('Advanced' page).

Error Code 6: Menu file version mismatch...
