I recently had to redo my computer and re-install everything, blah blah... anyway when I tried cleaning the Update, Dawnguard, Hearthfires, and Dragonborn esm's I get this error:

Oops... the second Update picture should have been Dawnguard.

 

Anyway, I've been modding Skyrim for over a year and have been cleaning dirty edits with TES5 Edit for just as long. I've never encountered this problem before. Is there a fix to this? I read somewhere that it could be the "OS" system, but I have the same OS system as before. In fact, I've already cleaned those files the other day... but I had to do a "verify integrity of game cache" which restores the main files to it's original state. After doing that is when I haven't been able to clean them. It doesn't matter if I'm using TES5 Edit through Mod Organizer or straight from it's own file. I get the same message either way. I've even deleted those files thinking it would just remake them instead of trying to rename/rewrite them. That doesn't work either. I still get this "Could not rename" error.

 

IF ANYTHING... does someone have these files already cleaned that I can just download from somewhere? Or do you know of a place to download cleaned files? This is in case no one can answer with a fix to this issue.

 

Thanks in advanced.

Exactly when do you get this error? When closing Tes5Edit when it asks you which plugins you want to save? If so, try disabling the little checkbox that says "Backup plugins".

Ooh, yeah that's when I get the error. When I close TES5 Edit. I've already tried disabling that "Backup Plugins" as well. I still get an error.

try running tes5edit as administrator. i usually go into the properties of these programs and tell them to automatically run as administrator.

Yes, I've already tried that too. It did not work either. :(
