Information contained herein was taken from the Skyrim page, and amended after testing in the Fallout 4 Creation Kit. Though instructions are similar, this page shall document the process specifically for Fallout 4, in the context of mod collaboration from multiple contributors.

Step 1: Setup your Creation Kit installation to enable version control
- Navigate to your Fallout 4 directory
- Create the following new folders:
-- Fallout 4\Merging\Data
-- Fallout 4\Merging\VersionBackup
-- Fallout 4\Data\CheckInBackup
 
- Enable Windows Sharing for the newly created folders
- Right click on the CheckInBackup folder -> select "Properties" -> select the "Sharing" tab -> click "Advanced Sharing..."
- Click "Share this folder", and then "OK"
- Back on the Properties windows, click "Share..."
- You won't actually be sharing your computer with anyone else, so you don't have to add any additional users - just click "Share" -> "Done"
- Make note of the "Network Path" displayed, you'll need this for the next step
- Repeat the above for the Merging folder (you don't need to do this individually for the two sub-folders within)
