How to Recover Deleted Sims 4 Households?

The game literally said my household was saved, but I guess I exited out too fast before it could process or something because when I loaded the game again, my household was gone even though I never deleted it. I spent 14 hours on the household and would really hate to have to do it again. Anyone know how to recover my household? I'm a Mac player btw. I also didn't officially start the game since it was on Create A Sim. 

  • @Azzliott Hello!  Unfortunately, if you were still in CAS and didn't click the check marks to place the family, they were likely not actually saved.  I don't believe there is a way to recover a family that wasn't saved.  You said you got a message saying they were saved, though, so maybe double check your library again to be sure.

    Click the button to open the gallery in the upper right corner.

    When the gallery window opens, click the My Library tab.  If you used any CC you should also click the Include Custom Content button.
