Playing on Win 11 (yes, I read a guide)

[Hagatha]

I've been getting freezing every hour or so now that I'm into the DLC for the game.  I've looked at the guide I could find, and it suggests downloading two files:  NVSE and 4GB Patch.  Supposedly these need to go into the game folders, which I've done.  The problems is that the 4GB patch is not an .exe file, so I have no idea how to launch it. 

Any help appreciated here.
