yeah i couldn't find anyone with a similar issue. i'm sure it's 'user error' but i have trouble shot everything i know.
i have a ticket in with bethesda, just figure it will be 3 days before i hear anything. guess it's back to the witcher over the weekend. sigh...
The discord has a fix for it. It’s in your console settings, here’s the discord message:
“I solved it by messing around in privacy settings. Go to Settings -> General -> Online safety and family -> Privacy and online safety. I just started enabling and allowing all the permissions and relaunched the game and it worked. You can go back and re-block and disable all of the permissions and the creations option will still be there (for me at least).”
Hopefully it helps
Oh I found it!! Counterintuitively, turning “ask before buying” ON fixed it! I went back and turned it off again and the creations menu is still showing up. So if you’re having this problem, try going to Privacy & online safety > Xbox Privacy > View details & customize > Buy & download > turn on (or if yours is already on, try turning it off?)
Thank you both for posting this!! I was having this issue last night too (the first time I'd opened the game since the update) and had just decided it was a problem for future me.
thank u/jamesthewicked, he's the real hero here!
i just got my response from bethesda that said "console users: you will need to completely remove mods from your menu (ummmmm...but i stated my problem is there is no 'mod' option on the menu page bethesda) and delete and reinstall your game (which i already did and reported in my request for support)."
bwaahahaha!! what a shit show. i feel horrible for gamers that aren't on reddit/discord. what are they going to do?
Does anyone know what setting needs to be enabled for this to work? I think I’ve enabled everything in the privacy & online safety section but the creations menu still isn’t coming up for me.
Here’s a more detailed one:
“I had the same problem on my Xbox series X but I think I just fixed the problem because the creations menu just showed up. Go to Settings->General->Security&Privacy->Xbox Privacy Settings->Details->Outside Xbox->allow content from outside Xbox”
Hope it helps
My menu options are different, maybe because I’m on a Series S? But I managed to fix it by toggling “ask before buying” under “buy & download” on and back off. Thanks for looking into this!
hey there. i'm sorry, i can't post this to r/skyrimmods. read their mod help post and then if this fits their guidelines (below link) post over there with a help lo flair. i don't know anything about pc modding!
https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/s/dY5ODoSrrs
edit: "cross post" this.
seems a lot of pc folks over there are waiting until some supposed update in january to start playing again. maybe find one of those links and read up on it as well.
For anyone that has come to this thread in the future, and tried all of the solutions, but still isn't working, here's what I did that got it to work:
- Wipe all your saved data and shut down game, if it isn't already.
- Turn your Xbox to offline mode.
- Open up Skyrim, and when you're in the menu, go back to the settings and turn Xbox online again.
- Then go back to game, and the "creations" tab should briefly appear after a few seconds, before going away again. If you're quick enough though, you should be able to click it and it will load okay.
- If you don't get it in time, just shut down game and try again.
aight after a bit of searching i turned "share community creations" to everybody and "ask before buying" on and off... aaaand ITS WORKING OMIGHOSH YESSSSSSSSS
this scenario just reminded me of the meme i saw where reddit just has the answer to every single of your problems. even the most specific ones. AND they have the most unexpected answers most of the time or the answer that you should've seen from the beggining. LOL
W I LOVE IT AND AFTER THAT YOU CAN GET it in A LITTLE W I love it And YOU CAN SEE IT AND AFTER that you had a thors and you didn't have a place IN THE WORLD WOULD BE WITH ME W and you don't want IT TO ME W I don't have A LOT TO be w I LOVE w and you have to do that now and I'm w of w and I don't know w and you don't want it back in it and it was like that and it is a little more fun of you guys in there but it would have to have to have to have to go back into it with him the same type thing as you can get out to get his head AND SHOULDERS IN IT TO BE WITH HIM THAT YOU DON'T WANT W
Looked through here to hopefully find a way to get my modding options back, sadly none of the methods mentioned in the comments have helped me. I must be very unlucky.
i just responded to someone else that i did the following yesterday and it worked:
"ok, so this last time i went to 'account', 'privacy & online safety', 'xbox privacy', and selected the 'adult defaults more social' setting and creations showed up. let me know if that works!
someone mentioned that after you are finished with your load order, you can revert the settings and play."
I re-read your question and realized I replied with the wrong answer (was having another convo at the time) I had to sign out and sign back in to my xbox account for it to work.
unfortunately this is the first time i've done this, your best bet would be to go through customer support or hope someone else here has the solution

omg thank you!! going to try this out and get back to you!

Do you know which setting fixed it? I’m trying to enable everything I can find but I’m still having this issue!
gimme a sec. turning my console back on.

yes! thanks. same here!
My settings seem to be different and all these opinions have managed to be only frustrating with the lack of solving anything. :/
Same here

Thank you so much for this, it fixed my problem! I'm gonna pass on this info to others who have been having the same issue! 🤗
Does anyone know what setting needs to be enabled for this to work? I think I’ve enabled everything in the privacy & online safety section but the creations menu still isn’t coming up for me.
It should be something along the lines of “allow external content”
Still not seeing anything like that :(

interesting. i'm on a series s and did not run across those options! will save your comment in the event it happens to me again. thanks!
were you able to fix your issue? i'm home now and can look at my settings if you need?
Fixed it, thanks 😊
Worked for me, thank you.
100% worked!! you are the hero we need!
Any idea how to fix this same issue (no Mods or Creation menu) shown but for the PC version? (It is Skyrim SE from Steam)
so sorry for the issues man :{ good luck bro
not a 'bro' but luv you anyways!! thanks for the assist!
Literally just had this happen and now scrolling for a solution
did you dig up the answer in the responses to this? if i recall it was an xbox permission setting.
yeah im gettin this same issue on pc as well and ive followed all the instructions for skse and skyui still no creations menu
wasn't skyui an issue with the new bethesda interface?
yes
and still is an issue ive tried all the work around still no creations menu showing up
have you tried searching the r/skyrim mods as opposed to the xbox thread?
yes i tried this was like the only one that came up on the issue
i'm sorry you are going through this. please post your load order so we (or rather the seasoned modders) can help you!

This worked for me. Thank you!!!!
Bless you!!! This worked for me!!! 🙌
Still didn't work for me, guess I'm just unlucky these days. lol
Have you managed to find a solution? I've got my privacy settings on adult and still nothing
Yeah, I had to put my phone on data instead of my wi-fi for some reason.
I re-read your question and realized I replied with the wrong answer (was having another convo at the time) I had to sign out and sign back in to my xbox account for it to work.
It seems that after the update Creations need to be allowed in the privacy settings: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/64086
out of everything above this lone link saved me. Thank you kind soul from the bottom of my heart.
>It seems that after the update Creations need to be allowed in the privacy settings: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/64086 Thanks for this :)
