It will not save on your desktop.
Disable the automatic synchronization of Onedrive with your Documents folder. When you later start the Sims 4 it will create a new user folder locally. You can then copy the content from Onedrive to the local Sims 4 folder.
- @jpkarlsen My sims 4 folder is connected to OneDrive am i able to make it go to my Harddrive?
How to disable the automatic synchronization of Onedrive with your Documents folder (since the above comment does not actual help people who might not know how to do that).
1. Unhide you data libraries if not already - In File Explorer, Select View Navigation Plane > Show Libraries2. Expand the Libraries Section in File Explorer's navigation pane (below This PC)
3. Click Documents under Libraries. The files and folders will be divided into 2 sections with one of them having OneDrive as it's path. Drag the files and folders from the One drive section to the other one
4. Right click on the Documents in the Navigation pane (in Libraries). Select Properties. Select Location, Then set the local location (C:\Users\yourname\Documents generally) and click set save location button
This will change your local Documents to your default Documents, rather than your OneDrive. This is the same process for all of your other files that are synced with OneDrive. Windows has recently made it rather difficult to change the settings so I hope this helps.
Mine won't let me do that :S

@Hom275 Please repair the game in Origin: open your game library, right-click on the Sims 4 icon, and select Repair. Then try to launch the game by pressing Play in Origin.
