Different Sims 4 files
Due to the latest update there was no storage left in my computer so I decided to move the Electronic Arts file to an HDD. After i moved the file the sims 4 re-downloaded but the files are all messed...

@Caramelyn You've installed Sims 4 on D: that's what the Data, Delta, and pack folders are. The Sims 4 user folder is always going to be in Documents > Electronic Arts. If the game doesn't see that folder, it'll create a new one.
The way around this is by creating a symbolic link, which is the same advice as before and applies equally well now. It's independent of the Origin/EA App transition.
When creating the symlink, please do NOT direct the game to look in the Sims 4 folder that contains the game's program files. Create a separate folder on D, for example D:\Data or D:\EA, and put the Sims 4 user folder you want the game reading inside that.
Ok! I figured it out somehow. Just you telling me where the documents were stored was very helpful. The game downloaded where I needed it too and now the correct folders are in my electronic arts folder where they needed to be. Thank you so much for your help and the quick response 🙂
