Stubborn Save

I am at my wit's end. I have tried everything, and I don't know what to do. I wanted to look in my C:\Users\Steven\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 folder and delete the thumbnailcache file, but right now, I only saw a Mods folder and a Trays folder. Did the file location move since we "upgraded" to the EA App?
I will say that I repaired the game before I looked in the folder I mentioned. Does repairing the game clear the cache?

Again, I don't know what I don't know.

I try to play a game, but it won't save.

This is where I'm at.
  • 10-4. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I wasn't sure if I should.

    Yes please, we have dedicated troubleshooting and bug tracking staff over on AHQ to help us best triage issues.
  • I have two more items that might relate to the above:
    I get a white screen when I try to create a new game/Sim.
    When I bring the options menu up to save the game, it tells me I can't save the game because it is still loading the game.

    Please help.
  • In response to Lenny_Ogg's question, I am in the game, but it has a temper tantrum whenever I save. This makes the game unplayable.
