Electronic Arts Folder and Sims 4 Deleted

Hi guys! My issue has a whole long backstory, but long story short my Electronic Arts folder and Sims 4 folder were deleted from my computer. Before that happened, my game would not upload new mods ...

    Hi! Sorry for the delay. Here is what I got!

    haleymiller@haleys-air ~ % find ~ -type d -name "*The Sims 4*" 2>/dev/null

    /Users/haleymiller/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4

    haleymiller@haleys-air ~ % 

    When navigating this way (instead of just searching for the documents folder), I was able to find the mysterious Sims 4 folder!!! Thank you!!!

The command hasn't finished searching - "You'll know when it's finished searching because the command prompt will reappear.". Please run it again and when it has finished, copy and paste the results here, a screenshot is not very useful.

      Great 🙂 Always manually navigate to it in Finder, never search as it is hidden from search results when in the correct location.
