Hello, i tried to download some more cc earlier but my onedrive storage was full (i had no idea my files were bing uploaded to onedrive, really annoying) and i have tons of storage on my pc so i followed a youtube tutorial on how to transfer my files from onedrive to general pc storage. I loaded the game afterward and my saved household was gone, along with my downloaded cc. When i clicked 'browse local files' of the sims 4 on steam, the game was located under Program files 86x > Steam > Steamapps > Common > The sims 4
All my files were there, but half of my mods were gone (they were all single files) and there was also some numbered files i had never seen before. I hadn't downloaded anything, i had just deleted onedrive, moved some things around and used my registry editor to change some locations. I moved my Electronic Arts folder around a lot, as well as copying it and deleting it, so i probably messed something up. My cc looks to still be in the mods folder correctly but it isnt working
At the moment I have deleted the sims 4, as well as all of its files on my pc (i made a copy of my mods), and i am now redownloading it.
I've tried so many different things and im practically begging for help, i dont reeally care if i have to redownload all my cc, i just really want my household back - i only have one and ive spent days on it
If anyone needs any screenshots please lmk!!

xenyie Let's make sure you didn't inadvertently break anything with the settings and registry changes. Please open Sims 4 and find the location of the folder the game is reading, as described here:
https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2018/07/how-to-find-your-user-folder/
If it's still in OneDrive, or anywhere you don't want it to be, stop here and let me know.
Otherwise, place your mods and custom content inside that Sims 4 folder. The one in the Steam folder is for the game's program files, not user data.
