Re: SIMcity transfer of game progress to new hard drive.

Ok,  went back and saw that I missed the forest through the trees on what you said,  unfortunately I didn't save any of the local user files.....  Thank you for your help.  Bright side is that I don't have to go back and research all of the technologies and can start a new map.

    I'm sorry that you didn't get the game files. Hard drive crashes are such a pain. I know it's too late for your old games, but with your new drive you might want to start backing up your user files to an external drive every once in a while, just in case. 

    I definitely feel your pain. I have experienced the same thing and now I try to copy my documents folder to an external drive every month or so. In fact, this is a good reminder to me to do it again - I've been slacking off on that lately 🙂

    Glad you are able to find the bright side. Happy Building! 🏦
