Please support mod authors! Endorse their mods, send them some coffee money if you can afford it. It motivates them to keep producing quality work and to stick around and fix bugs, which makes tools like this unnecessary. If you'd like to support me, check my profile page!
If you ask for help and it turns out you're installing sketchy modpacks, I will laugh at you (I may still try to help anyway).
Fallout 4 Special Note!!!
Unattached Instances are a normal part of how Fallout 4 operates. I recommend you NOT clean them until I figure out how to distinguish between the ones that are still in use and the ones that are not.

ReSaver - the savefile cleaner
ReSaver is a new savegame editor, based loosely on the excellent user interface of SaveTool. It works with Skyrim Special Edition, Skyrim Legendary Edition, Skyrim Legendary Edition + Crash Fixes, and Fallout 4.
There are already two Very Good savegame editors out there; Save Game Script Cleaner (aka SaveTool), and Savegame Script Scalpel. I use them both and they are fantastic. They do have their problems though. Script Scalpel has a difficult UI and is a bit slow. SaveTool has quite limited filtering options. And at the time I'm writing this, neither of them can load savegames from Skyrim Special Edition or that use the new file format introduced in Crash Fixes 10. And they can't handle Fallout 4. ReSaver is intended to correct those problems while adding useful new features for cleaning saves.
Features
ReSaver is quite stable and I use it myself. I have hundreds of mods, including dozens of major quest mods. I NEED a serious save editor. That's why I wrote one. I can't promise that it's perfect. It's possible that it will ruin your savefile, hard drive, childhood, and kidneys. In other words, there is no guarantee of fitness for any particular purpose, etc. But it's pretty good.
Instructions
See the Videos section on the Skyrim Special Edition page for more detailed instructions.

Getting started:
- Unzip the FallrimTools archive somewhere.
- Double-click on ReSaver.exe.

- Save to a new file.
- Load your savegame in Skyrim/Fallout and make sure it's working properly.
