🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure SkyUI is installed first – this mod only works as an override on top of it.
If you're using a mod manager, just download and activate – no special load order needed, but placing it after SkyUI is safe.
Test in-game to see which menus are reverted – the description says 'most', so some might still look like SkyUI.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust – 16,947 endorsements show this mod is a go-to for vanilla UI fans.
- Simple concept: strips SkyUI's menus back to original, perfect if you want that classic feel.
- Proven track record with 331k downloads – it's been a staple for years.
👎 Cons
- No updates since 2015 – might have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or SkyUI updates.
- Only overrides 'most' menus – some SkyUI elements may still appear, so it's not a full revert.
- Requires SkyUI to be installed, which adds an extra dependency if you don't already use it.
