Re: I keep getting `the sims 4 is downloading from OneDrive

@devildan76  If you've synced the contents of Documents with OneDrive, your computer may be downloading or syncing the files when you try to play, hence the error message.  Please either disable OneDrive entirely or prevent it from automatically syncing Documents.

You can still upload files manually; it's just the auto sync process that's getting in the way.  And after changing these settings, you may need to manually redownload a copy of the Sims 4 folder and place it in the local version of Documents\Electronic Arts.

    Did you ever find a fix? I'm going through this right now, literally day 2 of these files syncing and my game not loading. It is the dumbest thing I have ever experienced in my life -__-
