Sims 4 transferring data to new pc

i transferred game data to a new pc and lost my house and all inventory.  Household members and money are still there.  My house and all possessions are gone.  I have added my old tray folder to my new game, but no luck.  I have the old game on a external drive bc my previous laptop died due to liquid damage.  I have all of the household members but my houses and inventory are gone when I load the game.

    The Sims 4 is an offline game and progress is saved in your local PC only. if you have backup of saved game from old PC, you can move it to the Sims 4 folder on new PC. Then repair the game.

    Right click on The Sims 4 game icon and then click on "Repair"

    If you didn't take backup from old PC, there is no way to retrieve old game saves and you need to start a new one. Though your online purchases in game(stuff packs and expansion packs) can still be downloaded in game.
