Game won't save
HI. I recently moved my EA folder to an external SSD via Symlink and everything was working fine for the first 2 days. Yesterday I loaded up my save and noticed that my sims were unable to change clo...

The problems you're having sound completely Mod related. Creating the symlink to store the Sims 4 folder externally has absolutely nothing to do with game performance and improving gameplay. It simply frees up space on the internal drive.
> changed iCloud settings so the Symlink is now on the desktop instead of iCloud documents (EA folder is still on the external).
The symlinked folder is on the desktop? The game won't launch any data from a folder on the desktop.
Can you post a screenshot of your Documents folder contents. Scrub out any personal info.
Oops, I meant the shortcut is saved on my desktop. The Symlink is still saved on the external. It's currently working now - I had to create a new sims 4 folder and then slowly test out my saves to see which one was corrupted. I'm a little nervous it's going to happen again though since I don't know how it happened in the first place. All of my mods are up to date and the problem continued to happen even after I removed them.
@ewitsbrooke Could you try this please?
- Drag your whole Sims 4 folder from Document > Electronic Arts to your desktop. Make sure you're doing this with the folder the game sees.
- Launch Sims 4 and reset your Options. Start with New to test if your issue recurs.
If that works:
- Exit and copy files out of your old Saves, Tray, Screenshots and Videos foldesr into the new folders.
- Launch Sims 4 to test.
If that works, it's time to start identifying what mods.CC are broken. These might have been updated ones, even. They certainly could be anything that doesn't have a more recent version than yours.
