So it might be better to rename your Skyrim folder, make a symbolic link at steamapps\common\Skyrim targeting the directory steamapps\common\Enderal, then copy the CK files to the Enderal folder or re-download it on Steam so that the files are copied there automatically. This works, but doesn't help with organization if you want to keep both Skyrim and Enderal installed at the same time. If you want to keep the Creation Kit at steamapps\common\Skyrim, you can just make a symbolic link at Skyrim\Data targeting the directory Enderal\Data. To make a symbolic link named LinkName targeting the directory TargetDir in cmd, you can use:Ĭode: Alles auswählen New-Item -Type SymbolicLink -Path "LinkName" -Target "TargetItem" The Solution So, in order to run any scripts or commands that follow, make sure you're running as an Administrator.

Unfortunately, you can only create Symbolic Links as an admin in Windows. If you make a symbolic link at My Games\Skyrim that has My Games\Enderal as a target, every file that is read or written to My Games\Skyrim will end up at My Games\Enderal instead. These are like shortcuts, but they're followed automatically by any program without any extra logic.


The SKSE version that comes with Enderal doesn't support the current version of the Creation Kit, so you cannot run the CK through SKSE to use the SkyrimRedirector plugin to redirect those files. Additionally, it is hardcoded to look for Documents\My Games\Skyrim.ini and Documents\My Games\SkyrimPrefs.ini, which Enderal doesn't use. The Creation Kit can only be executed from the steamapps\common\Steam folder.

This post will teach you why and how to fix it. The Creation Kit doesn't work by default with Enderal.
