My game is ruined! Please help!!

My sims 4 game is ruined. I just updated after not playing for almost a year. Now 6 years of gameplay has vanished without a trace. I have saved, but they don’t show up as load game at the beginning. I tried a fix, but it’s not working! My mods are not showing up at the startup. I have tried everything and nothing so working! I have had this issue for a month now and I don’t know what to do! Two days ago, I created 2 new sims, but realized no mods would show up after enabling them. I have repaired the game and removed mods folder. After I removed the mods folder, no new folder would regenerate! Please help!!!

  • @Sheda1987  It sounds like you're not working with the folder Sims 4 is reading.  Here's how to find that folder:

    For your saves, check the same Sims 4 folder where you removed the Mods folder.  If you see any saves there, move them to the folder the game is reading.

    You can also check OneDrive for any Sims 4 content.  If nothing turns up, search your computer: open a File Explorer window, click This PC in the left panel, then enter Slot_ in the search field in the upper-right corner.  If you find any saves in either location, move them back to the folder the game is reading.

    Did you check your saves folder under the Sims 4? If so, check trash or the recycling bin to see if your saves somehow ended in there.
