   Nicely done, thanks for this.
   
   One minor thing at the end though. You suggest people might want to rename the file. That's not something you should actually do though. Renaming files causes the game to treat them as new content. If a patch does more than simple corrections to things, it could cause people to lose items, storage, or something else. Possibly reset a quest status or whatever.
   
   USLEEP got away with renaming files because all of the content underlying it was for the vanilla game and the status of those entries doesn't change. Patches for mods may not necessarily follow the same logic.

      Good point, I had not considered that. So it should not cause issues if you were to start a new game, but could cause issues if you do this process mid-playthrough. I'll make a note of it on the vid.
