Xbox One, No Apparent Way to Delete Individual Saves.

[vyvexthorne]

So I made a quick 2nd character to test out the save problem. For me the problem appears almost instantly if I simply travel somewhere. At any rate, I don't want to keep that save but there doesn't appear to be any way to delete it.

Hi @vyvexthorne,

I'm sorry to read you are having issues to save, please, join this thread to discuss that problem: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Consoles/Sims-4-won-t-save-on-Xbox-and-PlayStation/td-p/6...

Answering your second question: to delete a specific save, just overwrite the save you don't want with another one

Thanks!

Thank you for the reply. Overwriting does indeed work.. but at the same time I don't really need a bunch of extra saves taking up room for no reason.  A nice "delete save" option would be the ideal.   Especially on the xbox where everything saves in one lump save block.  Not sure if it's a problem on the ps4 since it actually has individual save files that you can manually manipulate.

Hi @vyvexthorne,

I will make sure to forward your feedback about this. Thanks for explaining why you think it's needed!

Thank you for the response. XP for you. If you level up do you get  a bonus? "Two days vacation for leveling up!"

Thanks! I asked my manager, and he offered sweets

Candy is always good. Hope you got the offer in writing. Nothing worse than leveling up and not receiving your handshake deal for candy.  "But we shook on it!" .. "Shook on what? Who are you?"

I too would like an option to delete saves on PS4

[vyvexthorne]

Since I don't have it on ps4 and can't look.. Have you checked the save files directly on the hard drive to see if you can delete them individually from there? Settings/Storage/System Storage/Saved Data/Sims4.   I"m just curious if it stores the saves as a lump block or as separate files on the ps4.

Can You Also Tell Them That They Need A "Recover Save" Button For Console
