Game not saving! - Sims 4 2022

Hey @puzzlezaddict , so I've tried moving the mod folder to my desktop but it doesn't let me, it just says this can't be completed because the folder is in use in another program, even though it isn't (all other apps are closed)? What's interesting is that when I tried to move all the other Sims 4 folders to my desktop it worked, but the Mods folder is the only one that says it can't be done because it's in use in another program. I've tried moving each folder one by one, and I've tried moving all the folders together as one, and they all go through except the Mods folder.

I'm guessing this is where the issue is although I'm not exactly sure *what* the issue is! Any thoughts? I don't have a duplicate folder so I'm not sure where this conflict is coming from

Thanks for all your help so far and sorry this is going on and on - fingers crossed we can get to the root of it and sort it out once and for all
