@Fairycatcher Is the last one the file path the game is using? That would be very odd for Sims 4 because it's programmed to write to the user's Documents directory.
It's worth double-checking the location of the Documents directory as well. Search in Windows for Command Prompt, open it, and enter this command:
reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" /v "Personal"
This returns the location of Documents. Please post the result here.

I'm pretty sure I accidentally copied the same file from the mdos folder, but here is the results from the command thing, i'm using window powershell so it might be different.
Window Powershell;HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\[Username]\Shell Folders
Personal REG_SZ C:\Users\Princ\DocumentsPS C:\Users\Princ>
User file;
C:\Users\Princ\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Screenshots\ @Fairycatcher That looks like what I'd expect. Documents is in the correct location, and Sims 4 is using the correct Documents folder. The issue is that your saves and custom content are in a folder on your desktop. So just move them into the correct folders within Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4, and they should work again.
