I apologize in advance...I know this has been answered somewhere but I can't seem to find it.

My little ones deleted my games and I am trying to attempt to retrieve them but can't remember how.

Will someone help me find this critical thread?

You can recover a deleted savegame as long as a new game hasn't been started in that slot. Look here for the file location and names. Find the backup file and rename it to become the primary file for that slot (e.g. if the game in slot 4 was deleted, rename Virtual Families24.ldw to Virtual Families4.ldw).

Thanks again Barbara!

You're always getting me out of hot water!
