God this stuff is all foreign to me. So I've done what it said to do in that link, but I got the attached message.
@pugicornlover It looks like your command was missing a space in it, or at least one. (I can't see the rest of the text string you entered.) The command starts MKLINK /J, with a space before the slash.
If you want, you can post the entire command you want to enter, and I'll take a look.
- 6 years ago@puzzlezaddict As far as I know the last line is the text I put in. It ends at the sims 4. God i feel I've really made a mess of this now.

@pugicornlover It happens. Did you move the Sims 4 folder to D itself, or did you move the entire Electronic Arts folder to D? If the file path on D is just D:\The Sims 4, try this:
MKLINK /J "%UserProfile%\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4" "D:\The Sims 4"
If you moved the Electronic Arts folder to D (with the Sims 4 folder inside) and want it to stay that way, try this:
MKLINK /J "%UserProfile%\Documents\Electronic Arts" "D:\Electronic Arts"
In either case, copy and paste, don't just write it out. It's really easy to get one space or quote mark or whatever out of place, and then Windows won't read the command correctly.
- 6 years ago@puzzlezaddict So tried both of those links and I get a message each time saying "Cannot create a file when that file already exists."
