Dragon age inquisition wont update or load previous save files
I recently uninstalled my dragon age inquisition game to reinstall it with some new dlc's that I bought. The game installed fine but I had to move folders to one with more space. Thing is I can open up the game and I still have the option to load my save files but when I do it gives me a message saying that "this save file is on a newer version of DAI download the latest patch to play it." so I update my game and verify it's cache (multiple times) try uninstalling and reinstalling again, but I still get the same message. What do I do?

The most common cause of this is using mods in the past. MOST LIKELY, you used mods previously and they changed the version number to something other than standard updated version. You can edit the version number manually to make the save work, BUT if you did have a mod that changed stuff, it make cause issues.....or may work fine, depending on the mod used.
