Re: Save files on old hard drive replaced by files on new drive
@helka-exe No, Sims 4 wouldn't update your saves or other user data on its own. When you say the saves are the same, do you mean the file names are the same? That's to be expected: the game numbers saves in the same order each time. So for each new install, the first save created will always be Slot_00000002.save regardless of how many saves you had on another computer.
At this point, what you can do is renumber the saves from the old SSD so they don't share names with your current saves. The file names have to be in a specific format: Slot_ followed by an eight-digit hexidecimal (numbers 0-9, letters a-f) number followed by .save . The .verx extensions denote backup copies, and these are valid saves too: you can load one if you delete the .verx extension and renumber the save so it doesn't have the same name as the more current version. It doesn't actually matter whether the saves are numbered in order, only that they follow this format.
If you're not sure what to do here, please post a screenshot of each folder that contains saves, as in, I want to see the file names themselves. Put the folder in detail view so I can see the dates and file sizes too, not just the names.
