    i usually coppy and paste it back into the same folder, just add the .old ending to the name so the game doesnt use it

    That's what I do as well. I also keep a separate copy of a fresh install of Stainless Steel 6.1 just in case every thing goes pear-shaped when I'm modding

    I make a folder named, imaginatively enough, "backup" at each level of the directory structure into which I copy files. I guess it's the sysadmin in me coming out....

    Also, CC's advice to keep a clean copy of SS somewhere is IMHO an absolute "must do".

    "Liberty is meaningless where the right to utter one’s thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down." Frederick Douglass
