Re: Switching from Mac to PC (the Sims 4/Origin)

@jillianjswan  You'll be able to download Sims 4 onto your new computer, for free, regardless of whether you get another Mac or a Windows PC.  Owning the PC version of Sims 4 means you own both the Windows and Mac versions and can have both installed at the same time.  (I have the game installed in both OSs, and it's never been an issue.)

If you'd like, you can also transfer your saves.  The contents of the Sims 4 folder in Documents > Electronic Arts work equally well in Windows and macOS; that goes for saves, Tray files, mods and custom content, etc.  Best practice is to launch the game once on the new computer, then transfer the files to their respective folders, not the subfolders themselves, i.e. copy over the saves, not the saves folder.  And depending on how you transfer your files, you may need to zip them together first; sometimes certain files get corrupted in transit.

Point is, you can transfer all your user content if you want, and all your owned packs will be available without your needing to take any extra steps.
