  • Thank you!  😕mileyvery-happy:

    I haven't tried the saves yet, but my goal was to get the game up and running again.  I've bookmarked the blog page in case I need it again.

    Good to hear.

    I would make backups to an external drive of savegames you want to keep.

    It worked!!! YES!! Sims 4 all day marathon! Thank you!

  • Thank you very much for this post. I not had all my save games backed up to they were about 1 week old. i now have an auto backup saved games through razer hoping to avoid this in the future.  That is the best trick to rename the saved games. I was able to restore all my games and fix the main game that i have been playing. I just hope my auto backup dose not write over my saved game. The way this happen to me was i had saved on exit game and the game crashed. When i logged back in nothing would work. All i could do was make a new sim but i could not save, save as, load. Not sure how i can avoid this in the future since saving is what caused it in the first place. I have had so many bugs with this game i pray every time a patch comes out that they are fixing it.

    This didn't work for me ;( Ive tried everything these forums say to do. I deleted all the save files and created a new folder on my desktop. This thread is from 2014....Will EA ever fix this????

    Great stuff @petalpower256. It'd be great to give XP to let players know what posts have helped you and to give kudos to the player that shared it. 🙂 Click on Crin's post and push the +XP button and that should do the trick. ^^

    I'll close this thread here as it's from 2015. If there are future readers experiencing a similar issue as in this thread do try the steps outlined in here but failing that, please create a new current thread. 🙂
