Re: missing sims 4 folder and missing electronic arts folder

@jasupanties

Could you follow this exact file path to try and find them:

Macintosh HD > Users > your user name > Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4

If your Macintosh HD is not showing on your desktop or in the Finder sidebar you can enable it by going into Finder > Preferences > General

It's not possible to do a proper search for the Mods as the Electronic Arts folder is hidden from search results unfortunately.

Have you done a Spotlight search? Have you renamed your Macintosh HD at any point?

It will be under the iCloud section in the Finder sidebar if you have iCloud Drive set to store your Documents folder in the cloud.

Please go into Applications > Utilities and open Terminal. In the window that opens copy/paste the following then hit Enter/Return:

find ~ -type d -name "*The Sims 4*" 2>/dev/null

Give it a moment to return the search results then please copy/paste them here.
