How to return modified trigger back to what it was ? Undo mo

Hi

I was making a mod and accidentally modified a sound to be used with defaultActivateSelfTRIG. Ok, it worked there where I wanted it to work, but after that was used also in 486 other places. I should have done unique defaultActivateSelfTRIG, but messed up with universal.

When I click on that trigger in Creation Kit and try to remove sound, there's no option "no sound" that I could pick. If I press "spacebar" in the list then I can clear the value (that says what sound is played). Looks ok, there's no sound selected in defaultActivateSelfTRIG after that. But when I save changes and start playing Skyrim... well, it crashes every single time I activate defaultActivateSelfTRIG. For example, if I try to fast travel somewhere to Robber's gorge, Skyrim crashes at once.

Couldn't fiqure out a way to make defaultActivateSelfTRIG default, untouched. Any ideas how it could be done ? Or atleast select "no sound" ?

Answering to myself. I recorded empty .wav file (less than 1 sec) and put that to defaultActivateSelfTRIG as a sound. Then I made new, unique defaultActivateSelfTRIG which I used in place I needed it and with sound I wanted.

Did Skyrim work after this ? Nope, kept crashing always when enterin Robber's Gorge. Skyrim kept crashing even without mod, in vanilla game. Then I thought this must have something to do with my latest save game, which was used with my mod when I had crashes.

Then I put my mod back as active, started Skyrim and visited couple other places (towns, camps, dungeons). Fast traveled from place to another, and then saved game. Then I walked into Robber's Gorge and all worked. No crashes.

Fast traveled from there to couple places, and then back. I even restarted Skyrim and tried again. All worked. Couldn't repeat the problem again.

Only problem is cosmetic, and that's the empty .wav sound that is now in defaultActivateSelfTRIG and used in 486 places.
