Last fix didn't work for me.
I have 4 different copies of my main save, 2 on my PC, 2 on my laptop - none of them would load. Game just crashes every time I try to load my save. Never happened before. I tried removing mods, I cleared the cache, I repaired the game - nothing. The other empty save work perfectly though Years of game progress just got wasted

@YankeeDew Do you see an error code when the save crashes? If so, please take a screenshot and attach it to a post.
Otherwise, please try loading the save in a clean user data folder. Move your entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, launch the game to create a clean folder, and quit. Then go into the saves folder inside the folder you moved, copy your main save, and paste it into the saves folder inside the new Sims 4 folder. Don't add any other content yet; just see whether you can load the save.
If not, try manually recovering a backup save and then see whether it will load in the new folder. Here's how:
