Junction file error for hard drive

@bbjerka  I'm not sure exactly what the problem is here.  Please describe what you're trying to do in general and what specifically triggers the error.  Please also post a screenshot of the error message, or write out its full text.

it's not a error code but my electronic arts folder didn't save into my hard drive properly and now i cant drop as the file correctly. this is what it's showing me the cc mod file was me trying to place the  electronic arts back up on there 

@bbjerka  Your screenshot shows the game's program files, which hold the game itself; not the user folder with saves, saved households and builds, mods, etc.  The user folder is the one in Documents > Electronic Arts, and you'll need to use a symbolic link to move it to your external drive, as described here:

Be sure to choose a different folder than the one in your screenshot for the destination.  If you get an error when running the command, try using the full file path to the Sims 4 folder, for example something like this:

C:\Users\[your username]\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4

rather than %userprofile%\Documents etc.

i'm sorry but i have no idea how to do the step, is there another solution 

@bbjerka  No, this is the proper way to create a symbolic link.  But if you want more specific instructions, I can help with that.  Please post the full file path to the folder Sims 4 is reading, as seen in-game.  Here's how to find it:

Please also post the full file path to the folder you want to use on the external drive.  This is not the one in your previous screenshot, which contains the game's program files; I mean a separate folder for the user data.  Or if you don't care what that folder is called, just say so and I'll include that in the instructions.

the first one

number 2

if the second screen shot isn't what u wanted then idc and u can explain pls 

@bbjerka  The second screenshot you posted is, again, the folder that contains game's program files, which is not where you want your user folder.  It sounds like you haven't created a separate folder on your external drive for the user folder, so do that now.  Open the external, right-click the empty space, select New > Folder, and name the folder Sims 4 Data (exactly like that, no extra characters).

Next, go into Documents > Electronic Arts, right-click the Sims 4 folder, and select Cut.  Open the Sims 4 Data folder you created on the external and select Paste, so that the "The Sims 4" folder that was previously in Documents > Electronic Arts is now in "Sims 4 Data."

Finally, open Command Prompt and enter this command:

MKLINK /J “C:\Users\mmaka\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4” “D:\Sims 4 Data\The Sims 4”

Please just copy and paste the command; don't try to write it out, which is a significant reason these commands don't always work for other people.  Additionally, once you move the Sims 4 folder, do NOT launch the game until after you've created the symbolic link.

If the command doesn't work, please post a screenshot of the Command Prompt window so I can take a look.

oky thank you so much but what do i do after i create the symbolic link if i cant open my game ?
