I'm pretty sure I accidentally copied the same file from the mdos folder, but here is the results from the command thing, i'm using window powershell so it might be different.

Window Powershell;

Personal REG_SZ C:\Users\Princ\Documents

PS C:\Users\Princ>

User file;
C:\Users\Princ\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Screenshots\
