How do you get Lydia unstuck?

To get Lydia unstuck, try telling her to follow you, then bump into her, walk out of range, and repeat this process 2-3 times, or say “I need you to do something” and click on a location a few feet away, telling her to wait there, and then repeat the bump method. If this doesn’t work, PC players can use console commands to resurrect or disable and re-enable her, while console players may need to load a previous save to get her back.
