Well, After experimenting with the wait in the pause menu method. I don't think it's working anymore :/ I removed the DLCs again so i have no Data files and tried again, i tried it on low settings, windowed mode and tried the character menu instead of the pause menu. However, apart from my efforts, my file size has gone back 101MB and continues to increase with this method. Not a happy bunny.

I just discovered it re downloaded heartfires and dawnguard. *censored*. Well, I eventually got back into the game, and the issue is still here. And now Dawnguard and Heartfires are back in my game folders, the file started to increase in size again. That was about another 2 hours of my time wasted. It's starting to look like starting again is my only option really. And that I definitely don't want to do. I think what's worst is the fact that I've put this much amount of time into a game and for it just to go wrong at the end really agitates me.

Hmmm, well, after I wrote my previous update, I deleted the DLC files from the Skyrim folder and then followed your instructions in-game. There was a drop in file size (it dropped from 102MB to about 97MB) this isn't exactly substantial as it took about 2 hours to do this. However, I did notice that the gameplay was far less laggy, but it still cut out after a few minutes. After reading your last post, I verified my game cache, and Steam came up with an error saying 8 files didn't comply (or something like that), It is now currently downloading a 4GB item called Skyrim. And I know Skyrim's about 10GB. My next question is, what is steam downloading?

Okay, there are no traces of mods or their files, only the DLC remains in the Skyrim folders. I Found a cave, mad a fresh save, punched PCB into the console and paused the game. If i waited in game, the game crashed out after a minute or so. So I alt-tabbed out and it didn't crash. However, when I went back to the game, I made a new fresh save and exited the game. I went into the saves folder and now my saves are no longer at 75MB, but a whopping 102MB! What am I doing wrong?

Does it make a difference if I alt-tab out of the game, whilst waiting in the pause menu? Because if I leave the game up it still crashes out :\

Will i lose my save if i reinstall it? I don't want to waste 90 hours of my life. No you will not. Wont hurt to back up your last few from each build. I am not sure about stored inventory, foolishly had everything stored at the bathing beauties... including my 300k gold. I will get most of it back eventually so I didnt care, but I would suggest that you store your inventory in a vanilla location, say whiterun house unmodded. I did it with 580hr... but I didn't really care. Was worth it. Well, i did it. Unistalled and reinstalled Skyrim. And it hasn't made a sodding difference, is it because I backed up the game content through Steam? I took off all of the mods, and i've used the last save I was at. Is that the reason why or is there something i'm missing here. I'm on the verge of throwing my computer out of the window as it took me almost 6 hours to reinstall it (Because my internet has decided to be really slow. Of all the days). When you did it, did you us the last save you had or did you do something different? Any Other Suggestions, it's at the point now where the game crashes after 3 minutes so waiting around isn't really an option. Please, i'm losing all hope here.

I need someone's help urgently! My Skyrim's save file is at 75MB! I've scanned the internet looking for solutions and tried everything that people have suggested. I removed all of my mods (including the DLCs), tried the debloater mods, Turned everything to minimum, stayed indoors and waited to see if that did anything, I even disabled all of the LOD, the sky, water, grass, trees, etc to see if that made a difference. I also had a look at the Papyrus.log to see if i could do anything there, but is still didn't make a difference. But still my game file increases in size! If there is anyone out there who knows what I should do, i'll be in your debt if you help me as this is ruining my game as it's at the point where it's unplayable. I'm not much of a computer boffin, but the specs of my computer that I do know are: Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit (I know, I know it sucks) 4GB of RAM (DDR2) Nvidia GeForce GTS 450 1GB Intel Core 2 Quad Processor (2.40GHz)
