Aside from that, you simply need to move the Sims 4 folder out of Downloads and into Documents > Electronic Arts. Trash the new Sims 4 folder inside, that was created when you checked the location the game was reading as described in the link above, and put the old one back.

So I pressed delete and assuming it deleted the 4,000 files. I played sims for a little and closed it down and then got a message asking did I want to delete 800 files. So the numbers dropped. But I'm still being asked before and after every game which is annoying, I'd like to stop the notification if possible, I'm not sure how I unlink them? But nothing was broken in game (touch wood) all worked fine and no files were gone from my laptop.
