Can I add and just rename my old sims 4 save files that I just found

So last year my sims 4 was so laggy so I reinstalled and updated it. But when I did, my saves were gone. (coz obv it's reinstalled) So I lost hope on starting over again coz I spent days just on CAS for that. So I stopped. And I just got back these past few weeks coz I got over that tragic moment. And just today, I remembered that I backed up my sims 4 folders from before and before I reinstalled it. And I wanna add them to the current. But the thing is that I wanna keep my current save and be able to play with it as well. So as the title says

Can I add that old saves and trays to the current saves and just rename them so that it wouldn't overwrite the current save & tray files? Can the game detect those renamed files?

  • @Trooyaxxx Yes, you can do that. Just make sure the renamed file meets the naming conventions.

    It should be: Slot_xxxxxxxx.save

    xxxxxxx can be any hex number except 00000001
