so, i ran into a strange problem. first thing i noticed was, when starting tes5edit from my desktop it told me it was unable to find my skyrim installation - all out of a sudden. it also told me to start the launcher again to re-enter the registry values. i did so. strangely, when i started the launcher it continued to detect the graphic settings, but while doing so i would only see a pixelated 800x600 window, black background, steam overlay and the enb stuff in the top left, no buttons or anything. basically the skyrim.exe, the launcher and the autodetect are freezing. i dont remember to be it this way. so i thought ok, maybe its due to the enb (im using enboost). so when i started the launcher without the enb it would work properly, but i remember it had even worked with the enb before, too, and now suddenly stopped. on one occasion the launcher would create inis but then prompt again to create them on a second launch.
so, next thing i was playing around in mo and noticed that it is not reading from its internal ini files in the profile folder. so i messed around and deleted the mygames\skyrim\ folder and the profile folder, setting things to write protection, etc, but all that i tried did not help to get the mo profile ini files to work. it seemed like mo would use ini files from somewhere else, but i could not track it down.
the configurator plugin would also give me errors and not launch until i removed all ini files from the mo profile folder and the mygames\skyrim\ folder as well.
but then even as i had it all deleted and let it be created by default, mo would still neither use its internal ini files nor the inis from mygames\skyrim\ and i was unable to determine why.
somehow i believe that maybe something got messed up, since i switch playing the game and using mo between win 7 and win 8. so my idea was, maybe something got messed up with either the installation or user control / rights. all these problems just came out of the blue and i have no idea what has caused it, except switching between win 7 and win 8.
before that i could tell mo is using its internal inis from the profile, because when i changed the resolution to an invalid value it would prompt me, but now, nothing.
