@SunnivaAppel The immediate problem is that your save names all have extra characters in them, e.g. Slot_00000002 8.save or Slot_00000004.save 3.ver2 . In order for Sims 4 to read them, the saves need to have the exact format Slot_ followed by an eight-digit hexidecimal (0 to 9, a to f) number followed by .save , with nothing else. So please rename the saves so they have that format. Make sure each one has a unique number.
The .verx extensions denote backups, and they can be used if the .verx is deleted and the rest of the save name is in the proper format.
To answer your original question, here's how to find the user folder, and therefore the saves folder, Sims 4 is actually reading:
