how do I make a deskstop shortcut for the Sims 4?

I wasn't thinking when I skipped over the check box for it. Also I'm not really tech savvy so pictures or steps would be greatly appreciated! 🙂

Notice that if you use a 64bit version of Windows you can instead create a shortcut to ts4_x64.exe. This can improve performance. Notice that if you have less than 4GB of RAM (very unlikely) you should run the 32 bit version (ts4.exe) regardless of if Windows is 64bit.

TS4.exe will start the 64 bit version if you have it set to 64 bit in Origin

    That is correct. However you can save a little (very little) on load time as ts4.exe must invoke ts4_x64.exe.
