I recently upgraded from 18.0 to 18.2. Since then I get an error every morning.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

It happens every day right before the new day is announced. I really do not want to start a new game. (maybe when v19 is released later this year.) 

Is there anyway I can fix it?

Is this going to affect me in any way other than my garden not growing? Or possibly interfere with Jin's story?

Thanks (and bracing for a realistic answer that I probably don't want to hear.)

I recently upgraded from 18.0 to 18.2

How did you do the upgrade? Patching 0.18.0 to 0.18.2? Unpacking the full game to another directory? Where did you download them from?

That error message makes me suspect there is something wrong with the game files.

I downloaded 18.2 (the full release) from itch. I extracted it which created a new directory, Harem_Hotel-v0.18.2-pc

I then moved  the saves directory from the old version into the game folder. 

When I played v18.0, it was also a full release from itch and it was the first time that I played the game so all my saves originated from this version.

That's the issue, never touch your saves. That will break them. You don't need to do anything except launch the game and click 'continue' when you download a new version.

With any luck your autosaves will load fine, but any saves you moved may be broken forever.
