How do I move EA folder from OneDrive?
I got a new laptop a few weeks ago, and I decided to install Sims 3 on it. I didn't notice it chose to place the EA folder in my OneDrive, until my OneDrive told me it's almost full.
I tried to just move the whole folder to my documents on my C drive, which is the same drive the Sims 3 is installed on. The problem is that Sims can't find the files when they aren't on my OneDrive, so I had to move them back for sims 3 to work properly, but there aren't space for the folder if it has to save a game.
How do I move the EA folder with Sims 3 files in it from OneDrive til my C drive without any problems???
Can anyone help?
I really want it to work, and I don't think there really should be a problem here.
I found a solution!
It was actually really easy to fix! It surprises me I couldn't find this solution on Google 😉
If you are struggling with the same as me, here is the solution:
Step 1. Move all the stuff from your One Drive to a folder on your desktop.
Step 2. Uninstall/TurnOff OneDrive, follow these Directions
Step 3. Open Sims 3, and start a new game, notice all your saved games are gone and mods/cc.
Step 4. Save the game and quit. This will create a new Electronic Arts folder with The Sims 3 in it in your documents.
Step 5. Move the folders from the The Sims 3 folder you placed in a folder on your desktop, into the new folder which is placed in documents.
Step 6. Enjoy Sims 3, as it is now saving all the files to your local drive, and not on OneDrive!
You can reinstall/TurnOn OneDrive later if you want, it shouldn't cause any problems! 🙂
Let me know if you had any trouble with this, and I will try to help!
