@KeliHollow What step is stuck? Please post a screenshot or two if you think it would be helpful.
The step where I type in Slot_ in the search bar at the top right corner in File Explorer. It's stuck trying to load.

@KeliHollow Try installing Everything, from VoidTools, which is a free and more efficient search tool.

Alright, I'll try it out and let you know!! Also, it may be awhile. My keyboards batteries died and I don't have anymore batteries. I also don't have another keyboard.

I'm updating you in regards to finding my save files. I have found my save files! Unsure what to do next.

@KeliHollow The save files go inside the saves folder in whichever Sims 4 folder the game is reading. Here's how to find it:
https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2018/07/how-to-find-your-user-folder/
The saves themselves need to be named correctly: Slot_ followed by an eight-digit hexidecimal (0 to 9, a to f) number followed by .save , with no other characters in the name. The ones that end in .verx are backups of the saves with the same number, and those can be loaded too if you renumber them and delete the .verx extension. But that's not necessary unless you can't load or don't have the main save of that particular number.
If you're not sure where to go from here, please post a screenshot of the folder that contains your saves, as in, I'd like to see the save names and sizes. Include the address bar, above the list of files, in the screenshot. Please also list the full path to the folder the game is reading, as seen in-game.
