Can I use a Nexus Mod on the PC Version of Skyrim that I bought through the Xbox App?

You cannot use any mods that the developer has not approved and uploaded to the game.

Windows store and gamepass games are encrypted, and incompatible with end user mods

Hi Bolski, my name is Oskayra. I am very happy to be able to answer your question.

According to the Nexus Mods website, you can use Nexus Mods in Skyrim Special Edition from the Microsoft Store on PC using the Vortex mod manager. Vortex is a free mod manager that allows you to install Nexus Mods into games running on the Microsoft Store.

To use Vortex with Skyrim Special Edition from the Microsoft Store, follow these steps:

1. Download and install Vortex from the Nexus Mods website.

2. Open Vortex and click the "Add Game" button.

3. Select "Skyrim Special Edition" and click "Next".

4. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up Vortex for Skyrim Special Edition.

Once you have Vortex set up, you can start installing mods from Nexus Mods. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Find the mod you want to install in the Vortex mod library.

2. Click on the mod and then click on the "Install" button.

3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the mod.

Once you've installed a mod, you can turn it on or off in the Vortex mod menu.

Here are some tips for using Vortex with Skyrim Special Edition from the Microsoft Store:

Make sure your version of Skyrim Special Edition is updated to the latest version.

If you're having trouble installing a mod, check the mod's description page for help.

More information on how to use Vortex with Skyrim Special Edition can be found on the Nexus Mods website.

I hope my answer has been useful to you. If so, let me know and if you have any other problems, don't hesitate to contact me.

Hi,

Fallout 4 or Fallout 4 GOTY are not Play Anywhere titles. If you want to play it on PC you'll need to purchase the PC version. I wouldn't buy it on the Xbox app though as currently (07/07/23) it's on sale on the Steam store at 75% off.

Also, unlike the Xbox App version, F4 on Steam supports external mods from Nexus mods. The Xbox PC version doesn't.

Hi

Welcome to Microsoft community.

I'm glad to help you.

I didn't find the ifone program you described. Maybe you misspelled it. However, if you want to download the nexus mod through an application, you can install this application to download and manage mods.

Nexus Mod Manager for Windows ⬇️ Download Nexus Mod Manager for Free & Install on PC (nexus-mod-manager.com)

How to Download - Nexus Mod Manager App (nexus-mod-manager-free.com)

Hi,

Sorry but Nexus Mods is PC only. There is no way to install any of the mods on that website on an Xbox One. Fallout 4 and Skyrim have their own mod options from Bethesda and these are the only options you have.

Besides, many of the higher end mods on Nexus (especially the graphics ones) wouldn't work on consoles anyway. And the many nudity mods would be a definite no.
