Getting The Sims 4 to save to a micro sd card.

Is it possible for me to get The Sims 4 to save to a micro sd card? I bought a laptop that only has a 2 GB hard drive. I don't have enough space on my hard drive to save the sims 4 because my hard drive is full, so I bought a 32 GB micro sd card for storage and I cant figure out how to get The Sims to save on it. So if anyone could help me that'd be great. Thank you.

    im sorry but the answer in no, i had the same problem where on my laptop i only have about 2 GB on it and sims 4 needs 10 GB. i contacted EA games for help and they said u cant use a usb or flashdrive to install it beacause the game needs to be downloaded on ur actual laptop/pc so now i have to refund it.

    r u sure you cannot do this i was on another site and they say that they did it and it works just fine,I just need to know if I need to buy a external hard drive or will that work? I may be a little late but maybe someone can help!

    It may be possible but I wouldn't recommend. You can set the path to install in Origin but if you get a different drive letter next time you put it in, the game won't play.

    External hard drives have the same issue though.

    Depending on the speed, it might also be slow.
