Problem installing TexGen. "Fatal: Could not find ini", "Fatal:Could not open registry keys"

[TechnoLion]

Hello everyone,

I am using MO2 to run TexGen. When I attempt to run TexGen I receive an error message. The message says  "Fatal:Could not open registry keys: \Software\Bethesda\Softworks\Skyrim\"

I have tried fixing the issue by running the Skyrim Se game launcher through steam and MO2 to restore the game  registry settings but my attempt to solve the problem did not work. I also tried fixing the issue by turning off my antivirus but that didn't solve the issue.

Below is a copy of my TexGen Log.

What must I do to fix this?

As the message says, verify the game is being started in the desired game mode. The current mode is TES5. That is Skyrim.

However, you mention the Skyrim SE launcher, which means you actually want to start the game in Skyrim Special Edition, e.g. SSE mode.

From DynDOLOD_QuickStart.html in the download archive.
By default the tools start in Skyrim mode, which is the same as adding the -tes5 command line parameter. Add -sse as a command line parameter to DynDOLOD.exe/DynDOLODx64.exe or TexGen.exe/TexGenx64.exe to start the tools in Skyrim Special Edition mode. [..] See DynDOLOD-Shortcut.txt for help.
