Q: What does this mod do? As the name suggests, this is a plugin LOADER. It doesn't really do anything on its own, it's mainly a requirement for other (DLL) mods.
Q: I get an error message Common troubleshooting steps:
When I start Skyrim , my screen gets filled with red-lettered error messages like: ...steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\enbseries\enbeffectpostpass.fx (49,1000): error X1005: string continues past end of line (The three dots imply the upper folders) In game, the enb doesn't work. I just installed Cabbage and all of its requirements alongside this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm having this same issue. using enb extender and it was crashing be turning it off lets me launch the game but get the same error as you. Did you figure out a fix?
After I updated my LOTD to the latest version, I ran into this issue. I just replaced the files in enbseries with the content from the optional files, and the error was fixed. I think you could try reinstalling:)
Make sure no other processes are locking any file that this plugin or plugins that depend on it. In my case; '\AppData\Local\KiLoader\SkyrimSE\Logs\KiENBExtender.log' was locked by another process.
I had the SAME issue. The only thing that stopped it was to change my enb from Pi-Cho back to Silent Horizons. I know the problem is from KiLoader because Pi-Cho worked fine before I updated KiLoader.
I had this exact error and I fixed it with ENB extender for Skyrim. The Wabbajack modlist I'm using had one installed but there is a red box with a white x inside. I disabled that and enabled the new one and now my game looks awesome and I don't have a page full of red error messages on start up.
I had the issue when using Root in MO2, i stopped using it and copied ENB directly to the .exe place. Then the issue has been gone for me. I think somethings went wrong with Root things
In my case, when upgrading from version 1.0.8 to version 1.2, my Skyrim crashed when trying to launch even before the splash screen started, an error appeared and disappeared quickly and I could not find out about the contents of this error. I have been using the old version for a while and it is working well at the time of this year. I decided to look at the downloads section on the mod's page and saw a separate file to download if there were problems. Then I got the idea that I need to delete the KiLoaderSatelliteENB.dllplugin file in the enbseries folder, which was automatically downloaded by the old version when the game started. I installed version 1.2 of KiLoader and a new file was automatically uploaded to the enbseries folder and everything is working without problems at the moment. I did not find any similar information in the description or in the comments. I decided to write a comment, maybe it will be useful to someone.
Apologies for my English. Recently, I encountered an issue where mods like Shadow Boost, Nvidia Reflex, etc., do not appear in the ENB shaders menu. This is related to the ENB Extender and Kiloader mods. If you are using them, remove them if the following mods are important to you:
Shadow Boost
Soft Shadows
Nvidia Reflex
Camera Noise
After removing Kiloader, go to the enbseries folder and delete the KiLoaderSatelliteENB.dllplugin file. After that, the mods will appear in the shaders tab.
"The following plugins couldn't be loaded or aren't compatible with the current executable: 'KiENBExtender/dll' - Import dependency missing from KiLoader.dll"
Fairly new to modding or at-least getting done with a list that works, any help on this?
"KiLoader detected an unexpected unrecoverable exception from a plugin, the process has to be terminated. Operation: Plugin load Plugin: "KiENBExtender.dll (ENB Extender) Exception code: 0XC0000005 Thrown from: KiENBExtender.dll+0X88C60"
No idea what's wrong, can't seem to find any thread about this issue, this is right after a clean Skyrim install and after installing just SH2 and its dependencies, any idea with what to do?

Install KiLoader as normal mod.
Install ENB Extender as a normal mod.
ENB must be installed as "root" mod.
Install Shader Core as a "root" mod. Let it overwrite ENB.

Is there a way I can force the game to recognise it? Maybe install it a different way?

I've updated the Visual C++ Redistrbutable and updated the Shader Core.
Rebooted, still the same error.
However, when i hit the redistributable again, and chose Repair from the installer, if worked after the reboot!
RE:I reinstall the Visual C++ Redistributable and chose repair,now it works.
