@CMekiThis is all that popped up when I searched "resource.cfg" in my file explorer. So I'm not sure if that's what need to show up or not.

I moved the topic to the correct section
Yes, this picture is exactly what I needed!
As you can see, one of the resource.cfg-files is in your OneDrive. That means that your Sims game is using your OneDrive as the game folder and not your documents.
If you want to, you can move your Mods-folder to your OneDrive. Some people have reported that playing the game via OneDrive can cause problems, but I don't know how common it is, so you can try that if you like using OneDrive. Your option is to either uninstall OneDrive, or turn off OneDrive every time you run the game.

If you choose to not use OneDrive, please check if all your saves are in your normal Sims 4 folder, otherwise you might want to move the saves from OneDrive to the other folder. This goes for screenshots also if you want to save them, and anything you might have in your Tray-folder (sims and lots in the library).
Please tell me if something was unclear and needs further explanation!
Good Luck!
Thanks! I'm so glad you helped me out! I'm going to test it and see if it works now! 🙂
No Problem! :D
If it works, please mark the answer that helped the most as the solution, so that others also can get help easier!
Happy simming, and New Year!
Sure thing! One last question, if I do disable OneDrive can I go back to using my original resource.cfg file and storing my mods in my documents?
But isn't the problem here is that the game is using OneDrive, not that OneDrive is syncing the documents folder?
If OneDrive synced the files that were in the documents-folder, the mods would be synced too and there would not be a problem, right?
So I'm not sure that solution would work, but I could be wrong.
Like JP said the answer to your question is yes, just to be clear 🙂
I'm about to test it now. We'll see if the issue is solved.
The game can decide (for reasons unknown) to use the version on OneDrive instead of the local version if OneDrive is active and the Documents
folder is synced which it is by default. There are two possible solutions if this is not wanted. Turn off OneDrive entirely or exclude Documents from syncing.
The latter is done in OneDrive Settings Auto Save. For Documents select This PC only.
Oh you meant it like thaaat!! I get it now lol, stupid me. I though you were talking about her having her "normal" documents folder synced up to OneDrive too and disabling that. Then I was also reading the post in bed at 1 am xD
