Hi, I'm a new user to the forms. So, sorry if this has been posted before, I tried searching for the same issue but had no luck finding it. I'm hoping somebody can help me fix this problem.

I'm having a strange issue with activating important objects in the game on a PC. My controls are at the default settings, so it has nothing to do with that. I can use the "E" (activate) button on almost anything and if I click openly in the air I can hear the clicking sound effect it makes, but when I try to use things like shrines, turn pillars, or even open the secret entrance to the Thieves Guild nothing happens. I've read that sometimes it lags, but I've sat there waiting for something to happen but nothing ever does. I've tried several work arounds, like switching the default "e" button to a different button, I've deleted my Skyrim.ini and SkyrimPrefs files, restarted Steam, I've tried making my companion activate objects, but nothing really works. I've installed a few mods, mainly texture improvement mods from Skyrim Nexus and once I discovered the issue I went ahead and uninstalled the mods using the mod manager, but even that didn't get rid of the problem. It's so frustrating! I'm really hoping I don't have to scrap this character.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or ideas I can try. Thanks!

Never mind, I'm a moron. I forgot I could always just re-install the game. That seemed to have gotten rid of the the glitch.
