Spent two hours organizing my gaming mods folder and only made it worse

I decided last Sunday to finally sort my 400GB of Skyrim mods into proper folders. Got halfway through and realized I had duplicates of the same file in three different spots. Ended up accidentally deleting the main texture pack and had to re-download 12GB over my slow internet. Has anyone else had a cleanup project backfire like this and just given up halfway?

Is it really that big of a deal though? I mean you just lost a texture pack and had to wait a few hours. I've accidentally wiped whole hard drives before and that's when it's actually a problem.

nah man @jones.grace i get what you're saying but it's not just about losing the pack itself lol. it's the hours of tweaking settings and getting everything just right that's gone. a wiped hard drive is worse sure but that's a disaster, this is just annoying in a different way. feels like wasted effort ya know?
