Hi,
I just updated my game and realized that it started with a super old saved file afterwards. I exited the game and went into my save folder only to realize that every save up until October last year has disappeared. Thankfully I did a backup at the beginning of January but still a lot of save files are lost. Can I get them back?
I have already tried everything from this thread.
Lalauri89 The saves are supposed to be in Documents > Electronic Arts, and that doesn't cause any problems other than the OneDrive-related info you've already found. I was saying that if the program files are also in Documents, the EA App might empty the folder when updating because it's checking the contents of the folder that contains the program files for anything out of place. So if your game is installed elsewhere, this isn't why your saves disappeard.
Other than that, and OneDrive, and possibly a virus, I don't know how the data would have vanished. But then there are plenty of similar reports where I can't pinpoint a cause.
