KBees37 Moving the entire original Sims 4 folder, or its contents, into the new folder just reintroduces the source of the problem, so I'm not surprised it didn't work.

Once you've done that, move over the contents (the files, not the folders they're in) of the saves and Tray folders, plus Screenshots and Recorded Videos if you care about those. Tray holds your saved households and builds. The rest can be discarded, as the game will recreate the data on its own.
I have moved the contents of each folder and have pinpointed the issue - the most recent save is the only one that causes the game to crash past the loading screen, it appears to have corrupted. I moved each other file over one by one and opened the game each time to see if it caused the issue, but it did not so it is my recent save. Is there a way of recovering this file?
I moved all the items from the tray over first then opened the game, and it did not seem to recognise it, the game had still reset.
