How do I move mods folder from (C) drive to a new installed drive (A) drive?
I'm wondering how to move my mods folder from the C drive to my A drive? the mods/cc that I have took up way too much space on the C drive, which began to cause issues. So, I invested in a new 1Tb driver that is not an external drive.
The issue that I am having is no matter where I set the destination for The Sims 4 to be installed its files are split off. The game and add-ons are on the A drive. But the mods files (and such) are still going to the C drive. How do I go about fixing this. Only thing I keep coming across is to do a junction, but I don't want to mess anything up, as I'm not all that tech savvy. I can do some things, but if I run into a problem, I know I'm not going to be able to figure it out without help, nor do I want to cause damage to my pc.
I provided photos so those who help can see what I mean. Also I don't want to just move my mods folder, I honestly want the whole file on the (A) driver instead of the (C) drive.
Thanks in advance.
@CallMeTaliG You could use a symbolic link to move the Sims 4 user folder, which is not overly complicated; you just need to be careful to get the command exactly right. Or make a backup of your data and don't stress about it, since you can always restore that backup should anything go wrong. Here's how to do it:
The guide is for external drives but works equally well on internal ones.
The other option is to move all of Documents to the A drive. This should never be done with an external drive, but for an internal one, it's completely fine and supported by Windows (option one):
Make sure that the user folder, the one with saves, mods, etc. in your second screenshot, is NOT in the same location as the program files in your first screenshot. You can create a new folder for it on A easily enough. Combining these two sets of files will lead to problems, likely sooner rather than later.
