Homebrew R4 card won't load .sav file

[wikichoo]

So I was playing Digimon Story Lost Evolution on my 3ds with an R4 (I use the ysmenu too) when I suddenly restarted the game and when I was trying to get back to it, turns out the game won't read the save file anymore. Just like that, out of the blue!
The save is still there, I tried creating a backup, putting the memory card on a flashdrive plug it in my laptop to verify if the save file was still there and it is. The game won't give me any error messages or anything it just loads as if there was no save file. The other games load everything fine, I'm not sure if this is a problem with the R4 or the rom, but I even tried downloading the rom again and made a copy of the .sav file with a different name to match the new rom but still nothing.

I would really appreciate if someone can help me out.

Check if your flashcart's microSD card is fake, faulty, or dying.

1. Copy everything off the SD card to a computer.
2. Quadruple reformat.
3. Full Write + Verify the empty card in H2testw. Do not skip.

Did the whole thing but the game is still not picking up on the save file

Try installing TWiLight Menu++ on your flashcard, and see if it fixes the issue.
After installing, create a folder called "saves" in the ROM's location, then move the .sav file into "saves".

Play the game on a desktop emulator. See if NO$GBA or DeSmuME picks up the save to determine if the progress was deleted. Digimon Story - Lost Evolution
, which has the serial code BLEJ, is one of the titles that has anti-piracy measure. This can be check against TWiLight Menu's sdmc:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/apfix/BLEJ-2E04.ips & BLEJ-D745.ips patch files. Maybe the flashcart you have is an older model that does not support built-in AP patching.

If the save is still good, maybe you need to convert between different formats.
