★★ Novice

I just went to play sims 4 and its like it's reset itself! All my sims, saved families, screenshots,and any achievements are gone! It's like I never even played it! I haven't installed any mods or anything. I don't understand, please help!

Go to this folder: documents\electronicarts\thesims4\ and see if your mods are still there.

 

If not, your folder got probably moved by accident.

 

Search for TRAY to see if you have a second user folder somewhere and if you do, just copy the stuff back

What kind of file ? You don't need to open the file ?

 

I'm confused what your issue is.

I am having EXACTLY the same issue and I am unsure what to do. I don't have any custom content either, so I don't think it's anything I might've downloaded, and I've already tried to 

'repair game' on Origin and refreshing but neither worked.

Hi @Jambanana143

If you never installed custom content or mods, then check your Screenshot folder in Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4. Are your screenshots there?

 

If you didn't take any screenshot either, what about files in Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/saves? Can you see old files there?

Then try what @crinrict suggested:

 

"If not, your folder got probably moved by accident.

Search for TRAY to see if you have a second user folder somewhere and if you do, just copy the stuff back"
