Re: Sims 4 saved game got DELETED after updating Origin
Do you have any software like OneDrive running that might be copying the files to a different location?

Unfortunately, I don't ☹️
Could you search on your computer for the saves folder?
- I went to play my game tonight after updating origin and all my Sims data is gone. My saves folder is empty, families and houses I download from the exchange are gone. The game is making me start brand new like the first time I played it. I have no mods. I had this family from day 1. I really don't want to start a new one.... Please tell me there is a solid. Why would an update do this??
Hi @FroznSolo
just making sure that this is about Sims 4 ? As the Exchange is for Sims 3.
Are you using oneDrive ? If so, did you check if you have a folder there ?
Do you mean the local saves folder on your drive is empty or in game ?
Reinstalling usually doesn't delete the user files.
Can you search your hard drive to see if you have another sims 4 folder somewhere ? Also check your trash.
So I did a search for "Sims 4" on my PC and found that I did in fact have a backup on OneDrive. My save files and other downloads from the gallery were there! I copied the data over to the Sims 4 folder in my documents/Electronic Arts/Sims4 folder and fired up my game. My Sims are back!!
Thank you very much for the assistance!
Glad to hear that.
Enjoy your saves
