My sims 4 folder doesn't look right?? Please help!

I recently downloaded sims 4 on a different drive on my computer and when i opened it up it looked like this. What should I do I can't download the sims on my other drive because I don't have the space, so I have to leave it on this drive.

    You should change it to not install to your Documents folder. Any other folder on that drive is fine. You can for instance create a folder named Origin and install to that.

    @jpkarlsen So I downloaded it to my origin file but it still looked the same so i moved it to a new folder i created but still the same result, the game works but I can't download cc and etc. because all the game files look different.

    Mods go in your Mods folder normally located in: Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods

    Edit: 

    Your game folder looks like it should.

    Hi @jwbwvxth8pnt,

    This threads a bit of an oldie that's long been inactive. It may be better to open a new thread please and tell us a bit about what's happening for you with this issue and what steps you've tried so far? We'll close this thread out in the meantime

    Thanks,
