Re: Can't install sims 4 on second drive
@renate574 There are two Sims 4 folders in any normal install. One contains the game's program files, normally installed into the Program Files (x86) folder on C, although you can move it to another drive, as you did. The other folder contains the user data, as in anything you've created in-game, or any content you've downloaded: mods, custom content, stuff from the Gallery. This folder is located in Documents\Electronic Arts, and if the game doesn't find a Sims 4 folder there, it will create a new one.
In order to move this folder, you'll need to either redirect Documents to your second drive, or create a symbolic link to a folder on the second drive. If your E drive is external, you should not move Documents there—Windows will not react well if the drive is ever unplugged—and should instead use a symbolic link to point the game to the folder on the external drive. If E is internal, it's best to move all of Documents there unless you have other reasons to keep it on C. A symbolic link will still work though.
Here's how to redirect Documents to another drive:
