Why am I getting a copy the save file path message in Load Game
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.83.24.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All the expansion, game and stuff packs
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go to Load Game and you'll see the disk icons on the my saved games
What happens when the bug occurs? I don't know if it’s a bug. But as of 2/8/22 Recover Save and Copy the save file path to the clipboard started showing up as options under my save file in Load Game. It only show up under the last played game. I never saw this previously. I am trying to find out why this is happening. Is this something new pushed to players? I'm confused as to what action I should take with it. Is this an issue or not an issue? and if it is a bug. How do i fix it. I have repaired and then reinstalled the game but it is still there.
What do you expect to see? I expected not to see that option at all. Same as I was not seeing it prior to 2/8. In the attached screen shot where there are 2 save files, you'll see it is only on the first one. The second one does not have it.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
As I said I am not sure if it is a bug and trying to find out if it is. Why would it tell me to copy the save file path to the clipboard. Copy to where? Not sure what I'm to do with that information. is it harming my save if I don't?
People have been asking for an easier way to find out where their savegames are stored. When the helpers here ask for that information for troubleshooting copying the path makes it easy to supply this information when they are asked for it. All your saves have that option if you select them.
