Borderless Window and now CTD

[hotelmariofan]

Well, I followed through with the S.T.E.P. guide a while back and finally just now decided to begin using Borderless Window hoping that maybe it would fix my alt+tab CTD issue. I installed it correctly, which is just changing my settings to windowed and to my resolution, and then throwing a .dll file into my SKSE > plugins dir. Well, upon first startup, the game, instant CTD - what fun. So I think, OH! Just remove the .dll and change my settings back, what a simple fix! What a stupid thing to think. I did just that, and what do you know, now my game CTD every single time I start the game. It gets to the main menu and then boom, gone. Any ideas? Thanks in advanced.

If the game CTD during initial load up, its usually (almost always actually) a load-order issue, where a mod(s) is missing its master(s). I would check in Wyre Bash to see if you have any boxes that has a red "tick" box, you can also check by running TesVedit and read the error message.

 

I don't use Borderless Windows any more, I just use the setting in the current installment of ENBSeries, which include the same function. Using both I read somewhere MAY cause issues.

Hm, well the weird thing is, I undid everything, or so I thought. I mean, I deleted the Dll and i set skyrim back to full screen mode. I never had an issue until I first booted up with BW, now I can't play my game. Clearly it changed something that I'm not aware of. I just don't know what it could be...

Reinstall Borderless Windows's single dll and see if that helps, if not then it must be a load order problem and I suggest you follow my instructions. I can't imagine that dll changed anything enough to prevent you to load Skyrim to the initial menu.

Well that was weird, I did as you said and checked Wrye Bash, even though I had just finished checking it minutes before installing BW. Now all of the sudden some of the mods that I had disabled, due to me not having certain expansions, were once again enabled without me ever even touching them. Either way, I disabled them, again, and now all is well. BW even works; thanks for your help Garfink, I appreciate it. I probably would have sat here in frustration for who knows how long.
