deleted a saved game- no .save.ver files in my save folder

@Spoonrinkle

You might try searching your computer for Sims 4 to see if you have any other Sims 4 folders on your computer or OneDrive.

To search your computer click the Start button and type in Sims 4 in the search bar and check the path(s) it gives you.

If you're not able to find your deleted saves, they maybe fully gone unfortunately.  At this time, Sims 4 doesn't use the cloud save feature.
