Moving Sims 4 folder to Program Files (x86)

I recently got a new computer and redownloaded my sims 4 content. When I went to download lighting mods I realized that my Sims 4 folder is located in Program Files and not Program Files (x86). I'm wondering if all my mods and cc are impacted that my sims folder is not in the program files x86. I'm just wondering if I should move the file and if so is there anything I need to worry about?

Thanks for all your help 🙂

    @tgwbarn  No, this will have zero impact on your mods or other user data.  All that data is stored in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 regardless of where you've installed the game, or where the EA App has chosen to install it, as the case may be.

    If you're not finding your Mods folder, or your mods or saves aren't loading in-game, make sure you're looking at the folder Sims 4 is reading:
