I posted this to reddit as well but I think this is a better place to maybe get help. My goal here is just simply recover my last save file, which does still load fine and works without issue but i cannot save due to the error/bug, and then convert to steam friendly save file so I can stop using the Xbox Game Pass version and use the steam version instead.

Been fighting this after getting to lvl 17 last night. When i booted game today getting this error. Tried everything listed here. I decided the best course of action was the converter from xbox game pass to steam and I would just buy the game there HOWEVER when I try to run the python script i get an error. The strange part is if I revert this file
C:\Users*myusername\AppData\Local\Packages\BethesdaSoftworks.ProjectGold_3275kfvn8vcwc\SystemAppData\wgs\00090000039FB06A_0000000000000000000000007BF72399\containers.index
back to the default that I saved a backup of before playing (thanks bethesda, this is a trait your games created in me) it will run just the script fine not when using the file my game has created over the course of playing it. I cannot code nor do I have the patience to teach myself it to figure this issue out. Anyone got any ideas?
Here is the error
C:\Users*myusername\Desktop\XGP-save-extractor-release-2023-09-06>python main.py

Tried recreating the folders it was looking for in the script with a container.2 file in each but we get to the end and now i am getting this error I cannot seem to solve.

Created a copy of container.2 and renamed it to 600D23C8F23D4EBBA3D9DC95152DAE2C and then deleted the file extension. This actually worked to move to next file and got me past that error. I did the same to the next files it listed however ended up in a loop. Stuck back at as of right now.
