Saves disappeared/no longer visible in Resume Saved from Main Menu

[THX1138]

I had a career and sandbox save and the folders and files are still present on my computer/file system but the saves do not appear in the Main Menu "Resume Saved" box.

I seem to have resolved the issue by deleting the most recent saves, deleting persistent.sfs and making a copy of quicksave.sfs and renaming it to persistent.sfs. Notably, the persistent.sfs file size was a great deal smaller than the other saves; I'm not sure whether that's normal.

I doubt it's useful to anyone but here is my output log - it might be tainted with red herrings pertaining to my fiddling to get things working again: https://www.dropbox.com/s/14jm76kd86wdpvu/output_log.txt?dl=0
