Re: Mods won’t show up or work

@JayLoo93

It appears in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 as soon as you launch the game. Are you 100% sure it has not recreated in there? It would be extraordinary if it didn't.

Could you please click on your Sims 4 folder once to select it, then go to File > Get Info. In the window that pops up please can you copy and paste the file path of the Sims 4 folder into a post here. It will be under the General > Where section near the top of the info window.

    @Bluebellflora, Yes 100% a new Mods folder doesnt appear, Ive tried it a few times.
    This is all it says in get info:

    Kind: Folder
    28,514,609 bytes (28.6 MB on disk) for 39 items
    Where: Macintosh HD -Users- - Desktop
    Created: Monday, 21 January 2019 at 23:54
    Modified: 30 January 2019 at 22:21

    Could this be the reason that the Mods aren't working?

  • @Bluebellflora,

    Actually when I’ve just searched for ‘Mods’ folder on whole computer a new one has generated under the sims 4 which appears to be separate to the sims 4 folder I was searching in.

    i did uninstall & reinstall the game in an attempt to fix the issue previously is it possible to have 2 Sims4 folders? 

    Thanks. !!

    sorry for the repeat messages but thankyou you’ve fixed the issue! I did have 2 sims4 folders that I didn’t know about so I was simply using the wrong ones thanks so much for your help!

    Great! I asked for the file path to check where you had the folder. You had it on the desktop, not in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 🙂
