so a little update about this: I ACTUALLY MANAGED TO MAKE IT WORK AGAIN!! what i did was i made a folder in the location you told me to go called "backup", copy and pasted the old files outside the backup folder and put them into the backup folder, and deleted the old files (excluding the backup folder, of course). so when i opened up a random build of this game i had, IT ACTUALLY DIDN'T CRASH!!! thanks for your advice man
