Moving mods from C drive to D drive

Hi, I am running out of space on my C drive (where the Sims is installed and all of my mods and cc). My D drive (also internal storage) is basically empty so I would like to just move my mods folder here (not the whole documents folder (as I've seen in some videos). I wondered if anyone knew of a way to just move my mods folder to D and have the game communicate with that folder for mods even though the game is installed in C. 

I need a really clear step by step on what to do, an idiots guide basically because I really don't want to get it wrong and I'm not the most technical these days :).

Many thanks!

  • shaunaw44​  Would you still like help?  If so, let me know, and I'll write out instructions.

    Please list the full path to the location where you want the Mods folder to be.  Pleaes also list the location of your computer's Documents directory.  To find it, search in Windows for Command Prompt, open it, enter this command, and post the result.

    reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" /v "Personal"
