had the same problem. Literally got it sorted out yesterday.
This is what helped me sort mine out;
When following these instructions, make sure NOT to delete C:\ProgramData\Origin\LocalContent
Thank you! its finally working! 😃
but I also have another problem.
After playing the game a few times, I went to play it again. Then it came up with a error message saying: Unable to start game.
data is damaged or missing. please try reinstalling the game.
So I looked up how to fix it and someone said to try and repair the game by right clicking it.
So I did.
Then after all that it was working, but when I got to the menu. MY GAME/HOUSEHOLD WAS DELETED!
I tried going into the EA folder to see if the saves were in there. Their were quite a lot of things I had never seen like
Slot_00000001.save
savegame-00000000f68d0000-13.sav
zoneObjects-083a01d905f80aac-6.sav
lotthumbnail-083a01d905f80deb-15.thm
package-clientDB-18.pkg
and so on..
I tried putting all them on my desktop to see if anything would change but nothing did.
I even put disk 2 in to see if anything would happen as well.
Nothing.
This is very disappointing, I was happy with my household and don't really like the idea of making another one.
Would there happen to be a fault with the software?
Does anyone have an idea of how I could get my saved game back?
Do you have this files in the saves folder directly or in a subfolder ?
Could you post a picture of your saves folder ?
