Skipped the backup esm step for Dragonborn - what to do now?

[iarwain]

I started following the STEP Guide and got up to part 2.D. Fixes. I followed everything correctly (I think) for Dawnguard and Hearthfire, but for Dragonborn I forgot to do Step 1 in the detailed instructions, to backup the Dragonborn esm before cleaning with TES5Edit. I then cleaned Dragonborn and closed TES5Edit. So now I'm at step 10, to restore the backed up esm, but I don't have a backed up copy.

 

What should I do now? Should I just skip step 12 (delete the TES5Edit Backups folder) and continue on? Do I need to reinstall Dragonborn?

 

Thanks!

You can continue on. The only reason for the backup is so that the vanilla files in the Data folder will remain vanilla. You'll be fine to continue.
