Need to know which files to back up
Due to a Microsoft visual c++ error not letting me download the anniversary sims 1 and 2 (got refund), and other packs for sims 4, I am going to do a factory setting reset on my computer this weeken...
Crinrict has a helpful tutorial on backups.
Backup all files in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4. That should include everything you need.
The following folders/files are most important.
- Saves –> Your save games.
- Tray –> The households/houses/rooms in your library
- Mods –> Package-files (Mods, clothing, object, …), which you copied in here yourself.
- Screenshots –> Your screen shots.
- Custom Music –> Custom music if you have any.
- Options.ini –> So you don’t have to re-set your options each time.
Further info on this folder and files can be found here: User files explained.
