So, now, in order to use it as TES4EDIT you have two choices:
It is best to set up a shortcut at an easily accessible location because you will be opening, closing, and re-opening TES4Edit many, many times. I suggest your desktop.


#Copy and then Paste a new TES4View.exe on the same directory, and rename it to TES4Edit.exe, or
Note: older versions of TES4Edit before 2.3.0 required some extra shortcut settings such as "-edit" and "-fixupPGRD". These are now outdated and you can simply download TES4Edit and run it unaltered.
#Create a shortcut to TESView and start it specifying the parameter -edit when you launch it.
 
In any case, always the best option is to create a new shortcut to it, just select the executable (TES4View or TES4Edit) on the explorer and right-click. Then in the context menu which appears, select Create Shortcut, which will create a new "Shortcut to <whatever>" within the current directory. After that, right-click on it (on the new shortcut), and again, on the popup click on 'Properties', and in the window that opens, edit the box called Target to have this text:
 
<path to where Oblivion.exe is located>\TES4View.exe -edit -fixupPGRD
[[Image:Pic020-Shortcut to TES4View.png|shortcut to TES4View|300px]]
 
If you just created the new TES4Edit.exe by renaming a copy of TES4View, and prefer to use it leaving TES4View for readonly operations only, then put in Target this text:
 
<path to where Oblivion.exe is located>\TES4Edit.exe -fixupPGRD
[[Image:Pic010-Shortcut to TES4Edit.png|shortcut to TES4Edit|300px]]
