Can't launch game

The game won't launch. It gets to the "Bethesda" screen logo and then shuts down. Any help?

This very often means that you are missing one or more master for mod file(s) you have installed. Master can be a DLC, or another mod.

Seeing that game does not sort out plugins automatically, people are using LOOT with Workshop mods as well. It will not only sort the load order, but also shows if any of your files are missing masters.

Initializing LOOT does not yet sort the load order. Click three horizontal lines to start sorting and APPLY when ready.

This information, guide about the matter and several other things are covered in pinned topics of main Skyrim discussions forum. Check my topic and smr1957's topics to solve most problems from the game.

Get Nexus's Vortex mod manager. You will need (want) to switch your mods for Nexus mods and Vortex will show missing masters and refuse to load the game until it is fixed or the dependent mod is turned off. Nexus is free unless you decide to upgrade.
