Do you have iCloud Drive enabled which is actually storing the data in the Docs folder in iCloud and not the local one?

    Let's do a thorough check. Please open Terminal and copy and paste the following command then hit Enter/Return:

    find ~ -type d -name "*saves*" 2>/dev/null

    After a little while it will return the results of the search. Please copy and paste the results in a post here.

        Thanks. Can you go into Documents > Electronic Arts and move that whole Sims 4 folder to the desktop then load the game. What happens?
