Re: Sims 4 saving on onedrive instead of desktop

I was wondering. When I was playing a particular save I was new to manage worlds. I thought I lost a sim and recovered a couple of games.

For example one of them is 8. I can't find my 9 save file anywhere. I have two 36s one is recovered could that be my missing 37?.

I changed the number to one of my saves (11 to 9 since 9 is no where to be found) to see if that would work. Now I have two of save 16 in the game lol! 

No matter what I try I still can't get them to show up in the game.

    @JINXEDFOXY  If you've renamed the save files and you're absolutely sure they're named correctly, but they still don't show up, I don't know what else to tell you.  You can of course keep trying, for example putting only one save in the saves folder and seeing whether it shows up then, but unfortunately, it sounds like some of your saves may not work anymore.

    The saves' names inside the game itself are irrelevant here.

    That's what I figured. I probably wasn't going to play them again anyway.

    Thank you!

    It seems I can't cut a break. it's so frustrating. I just downloaded spa day last night and now some of my CCs are gone (they were there last night). I found some in another folder.

    MC command center also disappeared. Luckily with the other folders I have I was able to get some of it back. The only thing new I did was download some CCs with TSR Manager.

    @JINXEDFOXY  I've never used TSR Manager, but perhaps that's moving files around, deleting supposed duplicates, or otherwise interfering.  At any rate, this is why it's a good idea to have a backup copy of your critical Sims 4 content, or just the entire user folder.  The next time something gets deleted, just grab a copy from the backup.

    I'll have to do that. I still have copies from all the moving around I did, but they are not current.

    I still want it on my HD and not my SSD drive. I'm not messing around with it anymore lol!
