193755672 Your data is in the Sims 4 folder on the desktop, and it can be restored by moving it to the new Sims 4 folder in Documents > Electronic Arts. But the point of this test was to see whether something in the old folder was the problem, and you've demonstrated that it was.
From here, test your mods and custom content first. If you have a lot of files to test, the 50/50 method can make the process much more efficient.

Once you've done that, you can transfer the contents of the saves and Tray (saved households and builds) folders, plus Screenshots and Recorded Videos if you care about those. The rest can be discarded.
If you can't find your saves, mods, etc., please open a File Explorer window, click This PC in the left panel, and enter Slot_ in the search field in the upper-right corner. The search may take a while to finish. When it's done, expand the window sideways so that you can see the full path to each result, then use Windows key-shift-S to take a screenshot, and post it here.
I don't need to see every single result, just enough to look for saves where they don't belong. So one full window's worth of results should be sufficient.
