The point is not that you aren't saving the game properly. It is that you are then being presented with a bunch of stale saves to choose from and are, from the sound of it, with no other viable choices loading up one of the older ones.
Again, delete the saves you don't need anymore from the Saves folder. And move any that you would like to hold onto for future reference perhaps into another folder on your computer somewhere. The saved game selector screen cannot navigate 163 game saves, and it's only going to show you a select few most likely the older ones rather the newer ones.
Oh, right since I didn't get any errors when I told it to save as then that means it did save fine but like you said it wasn't showing the most recent save and taking me to the wrong save of the game because of too many old saves. Thanks for the help. I'll delete out all the old 2020 saves and I think also some of the older 2021 saves that I know are from families no longer in the game. I think I will keep all of my Conroy family saves in there for now since I still have some of that family line in my neighborhood. Several members of that family line have passed now but I can't really tell by looking at my saved game names which ones those are, so I probably should keep all those for now. I'm assuming the ones that say back up at the end of them are back ups of families that I have created that are saved to the Sims bin so that you can re-play them again later if you want to. I'm not planning to re-play those backed up families in the game again later. I have a feeling that my Sim bin might eventually get to full of those backed up Sim families though. I haven't created a ton of families yet but sometimes I will create a special Sim to be with one of my born in game Sims. Is it okay to delete those if I'm not planning to re-play them again later or should I just leave them for now? Also, is it necessary to move all the saves that I want to keep into anther folder? I would rather just delete the old ones and keep the ones I still want in the same folder rather than making another one.
