@Violatorlexi If your computer runs Windows, please post a screenshot of the saves folder that contains the saves that you've put back. Include the address bar, above the list of files and folders, in the screenshot.
If you have a Mac, please see this post:
Here you go: windows, by the way
@Violatorlexi Your saves are inside a second saves folder, as you can see in the address bar above the list of files. They need to be directly in ...The Sims 4 > saves. So just drag them into the first saves folder and get rid of the interior folder, and you should be fine.
