@ohjosiek  The first time you tried the command, you left off the quotation mark at the end of the second file path.  The second time, you still left off that last quote mark and you also didn't leave a space between the two file paths.  This is the command you want to use, assuming that D:\The Sims 4 is the correct location:

@puzzlezaddict I tried that and it says "the system cannot find the path specified"
I'm sure I did the path wrong. The Sims 4 file that I moved is in the D: drive and isn't in any other files. I can send a screenshot of where the file is if you need it to see where it is to help further. Thank you for doing all this for such a non tech savvy person like me. I really appreciate it
