About this mod

In playthroughs, SKSE64 sometimes causes this bug where there are multiple .SKSE files instead of .SKSE files matching their .ESS file, this script file aims to help you clean up your save game folder.

Permissions and credits
Welcome !

Firstly, you may ask "Why would i need this ?" to be honest the first answer is that your are experiencing this bug, second answer is that it helps you save some space on your hard drive. Multiple .SKSE files can increase your save game folder size by a bit so removing them helps you be more efficent when backing up your save games. Also if you use something like a cloud service to back up your save games (example: Google Drive) this file could prove useful.

This is a python script that compares .SKSE files' name's to that of the .ESS files in the same directory, .SKSE files that don't match any .ESS files in the directory are removed. As simple as that ! It also saves you from the trouble of doing that yourself which can be hard depending on the number of files you have.

If you don't experience this bug, you don't need this file. I don't know if the bug was fixed with the most recent version of SKSE64 (I'm using 2_0_17 and this is an issue).

It shouldn't break anything, but if you want to be extra sure you can do a back up of your save game folder run the tool on the actual save game folder and test it in game, if it works fine that means you can keep using the tool without any problems.

UPDATE:
+Now shows the number of files and their total size:



HOW-TO:


1- Download the file and run it.

2- You'll get a prompt like this one:


3- Go to your save game folder and select that folder.

4- That's it ! You're done. Enjoy :)

NOTE: This is a python script hence requires Python. This was coded in Python 3 i don't know if it works with Python 2
