Utilities.GetSteamPath throws an exception if no steam registry key exists on the user's system. If user opts to continue, no save directories will be shown (select box is empty).

I encountered this problem when using the tool on a fresh Windows 10 Home installation. I have the Bethesda version of the game. Steam has never been installed on this PC.

For anyone experiencing the same problem, you can fix it by simply downloading Steam (don't need to do anything with it, just install it so the registry key is created). That will get you past the exception and let you find your Bethesda saves.
