Some examples of mods that use Scripts are Magic overhauls (Midas Magic), Quest/New Land mods (Falskaar), House mods with special things (Sjel Blad Castle), weather/immersion mods (Wet and Cold, Frostfall), Extra follower mods (UFO, or AFT), etc. I like this new tool, Save Game Script Cleaner by Hadoram that can found here,

You will no longer see the error message and your game should have nothing in it from that mod.įor the rest of the mods out there that rely on Scripts or that alter every NPC (not just the player) you have to take an extra step that will require a tool to clean you game save. Now save your game again to use for your character from now on. You will get an error message saying 'This save relies on content that is no longer present.' just say yes to this to load the save. Start up Skyrim again and load that save. Just make sure you unequip all the items from yourself and your followers from the mod you want to uninstall (dismiss a follower if you're deleting one from your game) then save your game. This includes many house mods, most armor mods, most weapon mods, single follower mods (that only add one NPC to follow you), etc. Most of the mods that only add things for the player and their followers to use can be easily uninstalled safely. Most body replacer mods, texture packs, etc do not use ESP or ESM files so you do not have to do anything special to uninstall these mods, just uninstall them and Skyrim will just go back to the default body or textures you had before. Those are files that are listed in your Skyrim launchers 'Data' tab, or your chosen mod manager, that can be seen and easily checked and unchecked. First let's handle the easy one's to uninstall and those are any mods that do not have an ESP or ESM file.
