PS3 Having difficulty updating Firmware + HEN

I know this might be the wrong place to post this, but I am growing desperate.

https://consolemods.org/wiki/PS3:PS3HEN
I am following every step in this website, but the farthest I got was Step 13.
Sometimes It will fail the export, sometimes It will freeze at "Preparing" and just now it froze at 45%.
I am using the Alternate Installer, because I'm unable to use the Auto HEN because my firmware version is not supported (I'm using the latest one, 4.92.1, so I dunno what it's talking about.)
I tried closing the browser and try again, and installing the HFW .PUP again, but nothing seems to be fixing the problem.
I'm considering using the HEN Enabler, but I am afraid that I will do further damage to my system if I continue to power off the PS3 every time it freezes.
Is anybody able to help me with this issue? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Also, do I have to wait for a long period of time when it says "Preparing", or do I have to wipe my entire system because of this?

Go to HEN installer page on ps3xploit website and add it to bookmarks. Clear cache and cookies and disable browser confirmation on close. Then try to install HEN from bookmarked page. If it's not working you maybe have a faulty HDD.

I tried using the Installer/Enabler from the website, but it didn't work. I event tried to use the Alternate Installer. Didn't work.
Am I screwed now?

Never mind, I got it to work! Thank you!
