Sims 4 Folder Relocation

@lakabocha  Yes, the first method would be viable.  The reason we usually recommend moving the entire Documents directory to a secondary internal drive is that this is supported by Windows and less complicated to do correctly.  It's not a good idea to move Documents to an external drive though, which is when the symbolic link comes into play.

However, if you'd prefer to use the symlink, that's a reasonable choice.  It's very difficult to actually bork your system when doing so; the worst that's likely to happen is you accidentally delete the Sims 4 user folder.  So make a backup copy beforehand, just in case.  And pay close attention to the syntax of the command, double-check your work, etc.
