(Solved) Downloaded game on Steam and am missing folders

So I downloaded the game using steam but it didn’t show up like the folder sims 4 did. But the electronical arts part of the files did not show up. So I’m trying to add mods but that file is not on my computer.

    Have you tried to run the game since you downloaded it?  The Electronic Arts/The Sims 4 user folder will be created the first time you run the game.  After you have created the sim and put them in a house, then save and quit.  Then you can put your mods in the mods folder.

    The game puts the Electronic Arts folder in your Documents folder.  It does not put the folder where the game files are installed.

    Hope this helps.
