Critical issue: Save lost and game stuck on white screen

After the latest The Sims 4 update I started having serious issues. First I got an error related to the **bleep** mod, so I removed it and the game worked fine. The next day I opened the game and my save file had completely disappeared. I checked Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > Saves and other folders but the save is gone. Now the game freezes on the loading screen, shows a white screen, and I cannot reach the main menu. The game is unplayable and I lost all progress. Please investigate this issue and advise if my save can be recovered.

    No, I do not use OneDrive and I was not aware of this option. I temporarily removed only the mods that were preventing the game from launching and created a new The Sims 4 folder to test — the game launched normally, but unfortunately my old save was already lost.

    Hi aribuilds​ 

    are you using oneDrive ? Did you check there ?

    Did you remove all your mods and try a fresh folder to see if it works on a new save ?
