Please open Terminal and copy and paste the following command then hit Enter/Return:
find ~ -type f -name "*Slot_*" 2>/dev/null
After a little while it will return the results of the search. Please copy and paste the results in a post here.
Hi,
This is what I have which I feel it didn't find any file. What I suspected 😢
No it didn't but it only looked in your Mac user account. Try this to search the whole drive:
find / -type f -name "*Slot_*" 2>/dev/null
Hi,
Well I am getting desperate as it doesn't look like it found something. I don't understand how it could have been so easy to erase the whole game without really letting me know... It didn't say your whole game will be erased. I though is would maybe erase the family not the entire save file!!!!

Yes, searching hasn't brought up any saves. Do you have any external backups of your files and folders that may have previous saves backed up?
Out of interest, is your saves folder in your Sims 4 folder completely empty? It doesn't contain any files with different filenames? And you definitely don't get the option to Load save at the main menu?
