Because then anything in there won’t be redone via a patch install. Otherwise, after each patch, put the modded files back atop the OOTP restored ones.

Bottom line, I wish OOTP better embraced its mod-ability instead of making it so hard on a practical basis such as your experience indicates because I’ve been where you are.
I put all my modded files in a separate location. I just have to remember to copy my files back. I still don't understand why sometimes when I start the game it does an update with no notice.
