CC is not there

a few weeks ago my game wasn't opening and I wasn't able to play sims i looked it up and was told to create a duplicate folder and deleted the old one and it worked I could open my game. but there weren't any of my saves, i thought i could deal with that and i could just start again i enabled mods and went into create a sim but there was no cc to be found. i checked my mods folder all my cc was there i am now confused and sad please help me.
