Saving UserData files - bunnrock - 31-01-2009 11:20 PM
I had to uninstall The Sims due to a virus, but I saved all of the UserData files to my desktop so I could import them into the game after re-installation. After a complete re-installation, I dragged the all the saved UserData files from my desktop back into the game, replacing the original UserData files with mine. However, when I play, the neighborhoods are still in their original state. When I use Explorer, I can see all my saved families in their UserData folders, but the game doesn't recognize them. What am I doing wrong? {cursing} (All expansion packs are installed)
