I think every download has 5 files. So you need them all but I'm totally unsure what is what.
@omk358 Moved to the general forum for now and changed the title to something more descriptive.
You can use the 50/50 method but I guess you'll need to figure out which files belong together (by date maybe). Don't know of any other solution at this point.

Thank you. I've just left the old files out for now, the game seems to be running more smoothly without all those files in the tray folder anyway and I'll just resave certain things individually and archive them that way so I know what files go together. Kind of weird though doesn't seem like that should have happened but maybe something was corrupted, I don't know. Although everything did work fine before the update just to be clear about it.

Yeah, seems that some of the changes broke some files.
Not sure what's going on.

I don't know either, I can't be the only one who's had this issue.
I did read this while trying to figure out what was going on http://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/forum/index.php?topic=21657.0
which seems to suggest that the tray folder might be causing some issues with stuttering and disappearing sims and slowing down performance with the game. It does seem it was causing my game to lag at times, the animations would sometimes stutter or jump. I've noticed a difference now that I've had to empty my tray folder after reinstalling.
I don't know if the developers will read this or not but I think a hierarchical file structure in the tray folder with individual lots and households each saved in their own folder would work better and solve a few problems instead of placing all of those files in one big folder. I'm not a programmer but that would seem to make more sense than 1500+ indisinguishable (what goes with what) files like I had.
Would look something like this:

I'm now having the issue where nothing is being saved to my library. On the Home tab it says I've saved a household and I can see the picture but when I go to my gallery the only things there are the default sims that come with the game. If I click on the picture under the home tab the family comes up and if I try to upload it to the gallery it doesn't show up under my catalog or my profile.
Checking in the tray folder, there are files there, but the game isn't reading them as being there.
