why aren't my mods showing up

Hello recently something has been going on with my sims 4 game. Firstly my saves have disappeared, which are weird cause when i look in my user file/settings file i can still see they exist, but when i launch the game they are nowhere to be seen, Secondly My mods have completely disappeared. no matter how many times i restart the game, no matter how many times I look at different walkthroughs or mess with my windows settings nothing shows up. I just need to know what i might be doing wrong so that i can fix it. I don't care if i have to start a new save, but I need to do something, anything! 

  • @phoenixgirl1398  It sounds like the game is reading a different Sims 4 user folder than the one that contains your saves and mods.  Here's how to find the correct folder:

    https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2018/07/how-to-find-your-user-folder/

    Compare that location to the full path to one of your saves or mods.  You can find that by right-clicking the file and selecting Properties > General.

    If this doesn't help, please post both locations.  Please also post screenshots of the contents of the saves and Mods folders, as in, I'd like to see the files themselves.
