One drive is full and I can’t take sims 4 out
Okay so basically I saw a thread about trying to unsync one drive. However, I still can’t do it. I followed different directions with ultimately somehow made one drive take sims 4 with it when I took it off. So I turned back on one drive and it all appeared. Also some folders and files in the sims 4 file have a status with a check and others have the little cloud thing which I’m guessing means it’s still connected to one drive. I’m totally stuck and have no clue what to do. Everyone keeps saying different things and overall it’s overwhelming and very confusing. It really hasn’t been a concern until now because now one drive is now low on storage. I just want to be able to have more space and be able to add more mods. I’d really appreciate any help on how to fix this and help others with the same situation.
@aem6xrz0qabh Before doing anything else, please make a backup copy of this Sims 4 folder. You can right-click the folder and select Copy, then right-click inside the destination folder and select Paste. Ideally, you'd put the backup on an external drive or USB stick, but the important thing here is to keep it away from any locations OneDrive tries to sync. So even placing it in your computer's Downloads folder will work if you don't have a better option.
Next, please list the location of the Documents directory on your computer; this lets me know whether you need to take extra steps to get rid of OneDrive's influence. Run a Windows search for Command Prompt, open it, and paste this:
reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" /v "Personal"
Then post the results.
This problem is absolutely fixable. It just takes a bit of patience sometimes.
