Deleting localcache files deleted all of my saves

Platform: PC Mods: Yes Game version: 1.120.117.1030 DX11

My WW mod was acting up and turbo said to delete localthumbcache and localsimtexturecache. I did that and when I loaded into my game, it was like brand new and all my saves were gone. I tried putting the old cache files back in but that didn’t help. Google said to make a new sims 4 file and I did but there’s no save files to put in the new one.

So I deleted my local cache files and that deleted all my saves.
