Anything here look promising? Thanks for your help, btw :)
gabz1014 Thanks and yes very helpful.
You have an Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder on your desktop. The game will not load any data from here as the Electronic Arts folder needs to be in the Documents folder for the game to read it and load your user data. Does this Sims 4 folder contain all your saves, Tray, and other user data?
You also have an Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder in Documents. The game will have created this because it could not find the user data folder when launching so created a new one. This is where all your saves, Tray and other user data needs to be.
In short, it looks like you have moved the Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder from Documents to the Desktop at some point.
