Help! My Save Files won't Load. Showing up as Slot File in game.
So my laptop recently crashed and I had to bring my computer to Best Buy to try and recover what they could. When I got my laptop back i re-downloaded Sims and tried to copy and paste over what save files I could find/salvage into the new save folder. For some reason I was only able to get a few old ones working but was really hoping to salvage my newer save files! When I go in game to load, some show up just as the "Slot_" File name and those ones wont load anything... Anything I can do to fix/recover these files? Or is the last year's worth of gameplay gone forever.
@Climber_Girl_ These saves may well be corrupted, unfortunately. You can try loading backup versions though:

Please also let me know whether you can load any of these, the main saves or the backups. If you can get to Manage Worlds, you may be able to salvage some of your work.
