(Fixed)Oblivion.esm missing! Will reinstalling game fix it?

[resonance]

Hello there,
 
I just recently installed TesModManager, but then switched to Oblvion mod manager, and I didn't download any mods yet, and I went onto NMM and opened Oblivion to see something and it said
"You are missing F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Oblivion\Data\oblivion.esm. Please verify your game install and ensure F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Oblivion\Data\oblivion.esm is present". Then I went to my Oblivion folder and I couldn't find it, and now whenever I open Oblivion through Steam, it just crashes. So how do I fix this? And if I reinstall Oblivion will that fix it?

If you mod your game, it is always a good idea to save a Vanilla backup of your complete Oblivion folder (steam/.../Oblivion). I just had this issue, and all I had to do was copy/paste the Oblivion.esm back into my normal data folder.
