On step 13 I have no idea what to copy for a backup because I haven't succeeded in getting it into diags mode yet. After that I'm not positive I have the file/command info correct on Step 15?
Can you double-check that Windows has not sneakily changed this to ENABLE_DIAGS.txt -- Windows by default hates to let people know file extensions exist on the assumption that the entire human race are complete idiots.

There is an option somewhere in Explorer's settings to show file extensions -- make sure it is toggled if you normally don't see them.
