Can't find Karliah in Ragged Flagon? [duplicate]

After I completed "Hard Answers", Karliah said to meet her at the Ragged Flagon in Riften but it didn't give me the quest. I went to the Ragged Flagon but she's not here. Please help.

One of a few things should work:

Save your game, exit Skyrim totally, restart it, load game, etc., she may be there.
Just wait -- NPCs apparently have lives (one of many things that always fascinated me about that game) so sometimes they go off doing other things, and you just have to wait for them. This includes travel time.
Work on another quest, something that takes you to another zone, relatively far away from Riften (so it unloads), that may trigger her to be finished with her "mission" for the next time you return.

One of those things has always worked for me in those cases, and it happened far more often than I would have expected.

Where is Karliah in the Ragged Flagon?

I found Karliah at the Snow Veil Sanctum, in the room where I got poisoned, stuck at the door at the top of the stairs. Just open the door exit and this should solve the problem. Show activity on this post. Wait a couple of in-game days for her in The Ragged Flagon.

How do I fix Karliah glitch?

Karliah may be going to the exit instead of opening the door to the Nightingale contract. To repair this, use disable on the door, and use disable on Karliah and enable to fix her before using moveto player to teleport her to you. After that, use setstage tg08a 52 and they may walk to their own spots.

Where can I find Karliah after darkness returns?

She returns slowly (3-5 game days) to the Nightingale Hall, and can be found wandering around there. She usually frequents the front of the Hall, but can be found just about anywhere inside. Occasionally she will also go outside during daylight hours to take in some sun and wander nearby, though this is fairly rare.

How do I reset my Karliah?

You can trigger a map reset. Go to an area far away from both Karliah and the quest destination, then rest for 30 days straight. This should reset the NPC and actually cause her to show up at the destination.
