    @xxxxcassie  Note that if you’re backing up your computer with Dropbox (I am) this can appear to do odd things to the file structure but as long as you don’t block access to files, it should still work. Two quirks I’ve worked out:

    1. Make sure to pause syncing before opening your Sims game or the lag will be unbearable as Dropbox constantly tries to backup temp files.
    2. Make sure to unpause / allow sync before downloading updates and new packs, or adding/moving mods, because otherwise you’ll hit all kinds of weird issues.
