✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 606 endorsements and over 25k downloads.
  • Tiny mod that does exactly what it says without bloat.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only works if you have the Unbreakable perk or the Skeleton Key, so early game it's useless.
  • Last updated in 2021, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or mods.
  • Potential conflicts with other mods that alter lockpicking mechanics or perks.

📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have the Unbreakable perk (Lockpicking 100) or the Skeleton Key before expecting auto-pick to work.
  • If you use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2, just drop the mod in and enable it; load order rarely matters for such a small mod.
  • Since it's compatible with Simply Knock, you can use both without issues, but always check for updates if you have other lockpicking mods.
