The procedure here is not to move the Documents folder to D or to move the TS3 user game folder. It's to instruct Windows as to where your Documents folder should reside. If the user Documents folder is already set to be on D in its entirety, then that is what the game should use. Is this what you have done at the Windows level?

It shouldn't matter which drive your Documents folder really resides on, but if you are out of or tight on space on the SSD, it would be best to redirect your entire Documents folder to the HDD.

(sorry for the "dummies" link, but they do a good job of describing and illustrating this)

The above is for Win 10, but the concept and procedures are almost the same for all versions.

Hi. Yes I’ve done that & ive put origin and sims in d drive but the ea file doesn’t go into the documents folder and when I move it, it regenerated out of it again.

Just to clarify then, not thinking about the game or any of its components, if you open Windows Explorer and navigate to your Documents library, or save let's say a text or Word document to Documents, does it not land on D where you have instructed Windows that it should be?

If so and the game is not honoring that setup, that's very unusual. It doesn't matter on which drive the game and Origin are installed, the game folder will always try to spawn and be read from Documents. What we want here is for Documents itself, in its entirety, to be on D. Is it by any chance trying to use a game folder in OneDrive?

You can't just move the user game folder as the game will then be unable to find it, moving the folder around is for making copies and for when we expect the game to spawn a new one on its next launch.

Ignore previous post. I have sorted it now. Thanks for your help.

Hi. I think it’s to do with OneDrive. I thought I’d disabled it but the documents folder was still there. Im trying to get rid of it and will then start again. Thanks.

Ok. I uninstalled OneDrive then started again. I left the documents in C and installed the game on d. Everything was ok. I then transferred the document file to d via properties and then it went wrong again and EA file was on its own not inside documents. I’m then unable to transfer the documents back to c. I’m having to reset the laptop again just to get back to the start. I don’t understand why it’s doing this.

My problem is that all the files I try to download are internet files and when I try to download the Resource.cfg file just download as Resource with the internet icon, please help, I have tried so many time, looked on so many websites, watched so many videos and I don't know what to do
