I can't move in Skyrim

Question

I can look around, but I can't jump, I can't attack and I can't switch from third-to first person. I brawled with Vilkas at Jorrvaskr to prove my worth for the Companions, and when I left dialogue, I couldn't move.

I can't open any menus, except for settings, and quest. I tried quicksaving and reloading, and I tried restarting, but neither worked. Can I get some help? I'm playing on a laptop PC.

If you just fought Vilkas, then you're outside, behind Jorrvaskr. Fast travel somewhere. Dragonkeep would work. — DCShannon, Feb 19 '16 at 19:50

For those playing on a PC, try these console commands to attempt to fix the issue. From the UESP Wiki, "Skyrim - Glitches" article:

Sometimes, you will become stuck after a cinematic dialogue. Use the console command, enableplayercontrols to retain your controls.

Rarely, it is possible to get stuck between objects, and be unable to move. This can be solved by fast traveling or using the console commands, coc <cellname> or tcl.

If you're not playing on a PC, you'd have to load an earlier save before the glitch happened as console commands can only be used on the PC.

If you are using a mod named FNIS Custom Animations, it can cause that problem, run the FNIS generator and it will work again normally

I don't get why some mods have such stuff like this? – Jim Oct 11 '15 at 18:14
