If the mod maker did their job thoroughly, each mod should already be categorized, though you may reorder or rearrange your mod folders as you please. Once the mods are installed using the tab at the bottom, simply select the mod out of the list to install or uninstall the mods by choice using the green check on the left. Note that to download the mods on the nexus website, you can either manually download a file, which you can then open with the Nexus Mod Manager's 'Add Mod From File' option, or use the NMM link to have the mod manager automatically act as the download client once you input your Nexus login information, the same information you used to download the manager. That's what the rest of this article is for.

Once you select that you want to mod Skyrim Special Edition, the manager will appear with a lot of default categories, which seem appropriate enough. Following this advice, I kept these folders on default so that my Skyrim install, mod manager, and future mods would all be on the same drive. While you can run the mod manager as an administrator to allow access to installing mods on different drives, the application gives some warnings basically saying that the best compatibilityВ is guaranteed if you keep everything on the same drive. Next you need to choose the directory info for the mods to be installed. Obviously we see that Skyrim Special Edition was located correctly and continue on. You can see in the image that I have roughly half of the programs in the list. One you choose your location, Mod Manager will automatically find the compatible games accross all of your drives. In addition to this, I ran the mod manager as an administrator anyways just to be sure. I found it much easier to install the manager and future mods to a folder on the drive root I picked the same drive as the steamlibrary directory that my Skyrim Special Edition install was located. Note: I highly suggest NOT installing Mod Manager or anything else within Windows' program file directory, unless you want to worry about admin privilege requests down the road. Simply choose an install location and you're on your way!
