General Settings¶

Default Game
If set to something other than Autodetect, this overrides game autodetection. If the game specified is not detected, LOOT falls back to autodetection.
Language
Controls the language LOOT uses. Any plugin messages that do not have translations in the selected language will be displayed in English, if available, or in their available language otherwise.

If enabled, writes debug output to %LOCALAPPDATA%LOOTLOOTDebugLog.txt. Debug logging can have a noticeable impact on performance, so it is off by default.

I have Skyrim Special Edition installed in my Steam folder. I have downloaded the brand new version of Loot 0.10.0. I have made sure to delete any old Loot folders from version 9.2 in my User folder. I start Loot and it does not detect my Skyrim SE game. I tried manually adding Skryim SE to Loot and pointed to the Skyrim SE directory under Steam. Mod Organizer 2 is a mod manager created by Tannin to support 64bit games like Skyrim Special Edition and Fallout 4 in addition to all the 32bit games MO1 already supported. Tannin discontinued the project when he was hired by the Nexus team to develop their new Vortex mod manager. MO2 was not completed and was left with many issues. LOOT ships with settings for the “Nehrim - At Fate’s Edge” total conversion mod as an example. Game profiles can also be deleted, though the active game cannot have its profile deleted, and LOOT will recreate the profiles for the base games it supports (Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, Skyrim Special Edition, Skyrim VR, Fallout 3, Fallout.

Update masterlist before sorting
If checked, LOOT will update its masterlist, should an update be available, before sorting plugins.
