I'm sorry I am confused as to what you want me to change currently the games I want to acess are in Documents>Electronic Arts> The Sims 3>Saves. There are two games that are currently not even showing up in this folder but are the only games I am able to acess in the game, I made them after this problem started for testing purposes.

in your image some of the files that should be in the saved game file are outside the saved game folder in my images (which posted in reverse order for some reason ) my saved game is band.sims3 bottom image in the top image is the files that are in that saved game , so if you open your saved game see if the files match up you should have the files in the saved game if for example your game file that is missing if the Meta.data file or the .nhd or both is not there your game won't play and you'll need to place that file back in there

My work around:
Copy a working saved game to your desktop
Copy files out of save file that will not load
Delete files in the working save file folder while game is at the select a world screen
Paste copied files into the now empty working save file folder
Load the working save file
Once you load the game save all important lots and families (Re-Saving under a different name will not work)
Close game
Restart sims3
Load a new world
Place families and lots in new world
Save game.
