Not enough space to download sims 4

@miss_ashey8   When a file(s) is downloaded to your system, a temp file is created on the system drive until the download is complete. The temp file is then copied (not moved) to a designated folder. This may or may not be on the system device. In the case of the TS4 download, It is then uncompressed. Then the installer is called and the game is installed to the target device. The minimum free space you need on the system device is the size of the download file. There may be other programs using temp files and the operating system is probably using temp files. You need to free up some free space for the download to function properly, Just adding a usb device will not solve the problem. And IMHO the situation probably won't get better. BYW the original temp file may not get deleted right away if ever. This is just one way operating systems bloat.
