Exporting Worlds from CAW fail

Question

I took a world I'd made several years ago back into CAW to fix some small but annoying flaws.&nbsp; It saved fine, but I get the failure message when I try to export it.&nbsp; This is nothing new, but it's been a long time since I last used CAW, I don't remember exactly how to fix the issue.&nbsp; I remember it has something to do with removing the DDCache and DCBackup folders then putting them back in, but I don't remember what it is that I have to do in between those two steps. &nbsp;Rflong7 you were the one who told me what to do years ago.&nbsp; If you're still active here, I'd appreciate your help once again.

HI :)It's been a along while. . .&nbsp;Once you move those files/folders out, open CAW...Don't open your world/any world!... but try and export your world. If it works, then close CAW. Put your files back and install. :)https://modthesims.info/t/497808&nbsp;I remember now (long time!). I used to rename The Sims 3 folder and open CAW to generate a new one to just export the world. Not open it if there's Store stuff, just export and close.&nbsp;Deleted the newly generated TS3 save folder and rename the old one back to The Sims 3.Kept the world clean... No attachments, also.&nbsp;
