Re: Sims 4- unable to select save file before game crashes (after june 4 update)

@Qudy2011

Can you try one save instead of the whole folder, so put a crashing save into the newly created folder. I know it sounds like it shouldn't make any difference but we had an issue last year where the saves, mods and tray files HAD to be copied into new saves, mods and tray folders to work. This isn't the same problem but definitely worth trying.

    @Bluebellflora Hi,
    This is what I've done.
    - Removed sims4 folder from documents folder
    - Start game, quit game
    - Copied one (crash) file Slot_00000005.save to saves folder (This is the latest saved game of the crash household)
    - Start game
    - Load game
    - Only 1 save, so loaded this saved game
    - Click on household
    - Click on play button
    - Game shut down itself

    This household has 6 save files, starting from the oldest to newer....the sixth, fifth, fourth, third, and second saved game did not crash the game.....so it look likes only the latest saved game of this household is responsible for the game crash.

    Which is weird, saved on the same day as the second, no new packs installed in the meantime.
    So it's not the end of the world ;-)
