Re: Sims 4 - stuck on loading screen

It helped, thank you so much!!

i had the same issue and I put my sims 4 folder in my desktop and it worked. but my mods arent showing up in he game even though i still have my mods folder in my sims 4 game. the only way my mods show up if if my sims 4 folder is in electronic arts. can i put my sims 4 folder back in electronic arts or will my game have the same issue again if i do that? by the wy, my issue was that everytime i went to resume my game, it would just show me an infinite loading screen. 

@Vicandjoeplays  The game isn't reading the Sims 4 folder on the desktop, which is why your mods aren't loading either.  The point is to test whether removing all your content at once, everything in that old folder, fixed the issue(s) you're seeing.  Since it did, the next step is to test your old content in the new folder, a little at a time.  Start with your mods and custom content.  You can find a list of mods and cc known to be broken here:

For anything not on that list, you'll need to test it yourself.  The 50/50 method can make the process much more efficient.

Once you've done that, you can copy over the contents of saves, Tray (saved households and builds), Screenshots and Recorded Videos if you care about those, plus the UserSetting.ini file for the login rewards.  The rest can be discarded.
