Once you've done that, and the game is working with whatever mods and cc you want to use, add back your saves and Tray files, plus Screenshots and Recorded Videos if you care about those. The rest can be discarded.
@PianoMan565 Did you try the clean folder, and are you able to play without a crash? If so, please see the above. If not, please post a dxdiag.

Thank you for this. I followed your steps and was able to find the issue. Apparently the custom music folders were what was causing my game to crash on the plumbob loading screen before getting to the main menu. Everything else in my game was working fine. I wouldn't have been able to find that without following your advice so you have my heartfelt thanks.
