Q&A for How to Install SKSE

There isn't one by default. Simply make a new folder named "Scripts", put it into your Skyrim data folder, and copy the required files into it.

SKSE hasn't been reworked for Skyrim: Special Edition. I don't believe the original creators plan on doing it, either.

Any mods that need SKSE will state that they require SKSE to properly work. Most mods are extract and play, but many still require SKSE.

Do the same thing as in this guide, but instead of copying the files from the scripts folder, you have to do the following: 1. Make sure winrar is installed. If not, just install it. 2. Right click on the "data" folder in your skse/skse64 folder. Click "Add to archive" from the dropdown list, then make the archive type a .zip. 3. Go to Nexus Mod Manager and click "Add mod from file." Locate the zip file and click "Open." Then, just activate the mod.

The file should exist in your SKSE download. Recheck that your download finished properly.

You cannot. that is not a thing you can do, you have to install it manually.
