I then applied the appropriate mods to each copy, leaving one copy untouched.
I did something similar. I was keeping a folder I called "Favorites" full of my favorite mods which I would have to reinstall any time I needed to redo the game. I finally figured it out: In my "Favorites" folder I now have two special files. One is titled "Data + 1.4", in case I need something from the original folder. The other is titled "Data-My Way". Every time I add something new to my game I either add it to the "My Way" file if I like it or chuck the whole Data folder and put the existing "My Way" back in.

I'll make a copy of my "+1.4", add NYGM 2.0 to that and put it in. If I like it I can keep it; if not, "My Way" goes back in.

Of course, being me, I'll probably go through every file in NYGM and mix-'n'-match like always.
