I'm desperate here, quest won't start.

Right, so I've had trouble with the Benign Intervention quest not starting.
So, after approximately 3 or more hours of searching the internet and the game's console, I finally found the QuestID
(For anyone interested It's: COMCaitQuest or 001666C5)
Hurray! All my problems are solved!
Wait, what?
I use the sqs command to get the quest stages.
I've tried both
setstage COMCaitQuest 10
setstage 001666C5 10
player.setstage COMCaitQuest 10
player.setstage 001666C5 10
Nothing happens.
And I've also experimented with ALL the quest stages.
The quest stages being 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 75, 80, 90, 100, 110, 255 and 355.
I write getstage COMCaitQuest 10, and I see It's set to 0. Even after I do the setstage command.
Now, if this doesn't seem broken enough for you yet, wait, there's more.
I try doing 'completequest 001666C5'
Yay! I got XP! That means it works, right? No. You're wrong. I look in my journal and there is no history of the quest even existing.
I do getstage again and It's still 0
I had my friend use the same console command as me and it worked for him, yet not for me. I've loaded earlier saves, and tried to do it there, didn't work. Simple console commands such as tgm still work so..
I have tried everything in my power to fix this and after 6 hours of work, I can safely say, I have achieved nothing.

Yes, thank you. I just found out about this fix myself while in-game and was about to post about it here.
