Hi JayByrd1879,
Thank you for using the bug report format. I’m sorry to hear this issue affected your save. If the version number in the bottom left of the main menu is 2074 then your version if up to date with the latest patch that should prevent future instances of saves been stuck in the “cleaning up” phase from happening. Unfortunately due to the nature of the issue, the fix cannot restore already affected saves.
