Sims 4 Won’t Load

Now I haven’t played my game since July and randomly decided I wanted to play again. I got everything updated and deleted all my old mods and just decided to load in a see what was new with no mods or anything. I could get to the screen to load a game but once I clicked load game it would just sit on the loading screen and buffer for forever. I quit the game and i’ve tried about every solution I can find. It will load with a brand new game, it will load if I use my old saves from when I first started. But it won’t load with my most recent saves and I let it load for over an hour and still nothing. And no I don’t have any mods in when I tried to load it. I don’t know what to do anymore and I don’t want to start over

    Maybe. If you can’t get a save to load after copying it into a completely clean Sims 4 folder, with none of your other data copied over such as Mods, settings, everything else then yes.

    Feel free to upload the save to a file sharing site and DM me the link so I can download and test in my game if you like.

    Have you tested the most recent saves one by one in a completely clean Sims 4 folder? This means renaming your current Sims 4 folder, launching the game so a new one is created, quitting without saving, then moving one of the recent saves into the newly created Sims 4 > saves folder then re-launching the game.

    Yes I tried starting a whole new game instead of renaming the folder and moved my saved over and it still didn’t work
