So renaming my saves and deleting the backups just completely deleted all of my saves. Is there anything else I can do for future saves? I've already tried repairing the game through EA and reactivating all of my expansion packs in the Sims 3 Launcher. I have done both of these several times and nothing works. EA Support is no help either, they just point me right to this forum and shrug their shoulders when I tell them it didn't work.
@mightyma My advice was to delete the .backup file extension, as in, the text, not the folders. So if you had a save called SunsetValley, you'd have a SunsetValley.sims3 folder and a SunsetValley.sims3.backup folder. If you followed my suggestion, the latter would become something like SunsetValley1.sims3 , which you could load from the Main Menu.
Please try to restore any saves you deleted if you can find them in the recycle bin. And if you've renamed your main saves, make sure the folder names still end in .sims3 and the names don't contain any special characters.
