Re: I don't have a mods folder.

Do you know how i could find the game folder?

@ThisIsMePlaying
Go to menu Start . Select on the right Dokuments and click it.
Yo will see Electonic Arts folder. Open it.
Inside is the The Sims4 game folder 🙂

Is the correct metod. I see a tutorial in https://instalar.info and works fine.

I have a problem too with my mods folder. Yesterday I bought the sims 4 base game with the cats and dogs expansion pack , the location of mine sims 4 folder is in C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games and when i open it , it didnt have mods folder i made one and then i put my mods and cc the cc and mods that i have inside dont show up in my game and i have inside the mods folder the resource.cfg file but still they dont show up in my game . What can I do ? Do I need to buy all the packs ?

@LottieGrayYT   There are two sets of files for the game: the program files are where you installed them, common path is the one you mentioned: C:\Program Files (86)\Origin Games.

The user files are located in Documents>Electronic Arts in a folder called The Sims 4. Inside that folder is a folder called Mods, this is where you install your mods and CC.

Detailed tutorial:

I would suggest you delete the mods folder you put in with the program files, and do a Repair in Origin for good measure:
Origin>My Game Library right click The Sims 4 icon, choose Repair in the drop-down menu.

Then install your mods in the right folder.

@kreatorabut I don't have electronics arts folder or mods folder do you get ME. 😕

That's the problem! I've downloaded the Sims 4 before onto a laptop before and it's not a problem.
But LITERALLY had to redownload it onto a different computer.
Now the file IS IN THE DOCUMENTS FOLDER, but for some reason it's just 'The Sims 4" No other folder labeled Electronic Arts. And then there's no mods folder.

I have NOT deleted any folders or anything. I have NOT modified anything.

I even went onto the game and made a character all over since I had to restart the game and then I saved a character.

I HAVE gone onto the game to tell it to allow Mods and such. STILL NOTHING.

Everything that anyone has told me to do, there has been nothing.

This picture shows these are the files that are opened when I go to "The Sims 4" folder in my Documents page; again no folder labeled Electronic Arts (which I DID NOT DELETE). I do not know where the Mods folder would be or what to do.

Help.

@darkvikita  The folders in your screenshot are part of the game's program files, as in, the data Origin installs.  The Mods folder is inside the user folder along with other user files like these:

You must have a user folder somewhere, or at least it must exist while you're actually playing the game.  If your saves are getting deleted, it's possible the user folder is being uploaded to OneDrive; please check its version of Documents for any Sims 4 content.

If the files aren't in OneDrive, please load the game, play for a bit (no need to spend much time on it), save your progress, and exit to the Main Menu rather than quitting.  From there, click Load Game, hover over the folder icon for your save, and write down the exact file path you see.  Please post that here.  You can write [username] instead of your actual username if you want, but let me know if you see the wrong username.
