@lushifii The Public folder is NOT associated with your new account. It's a folder accessible to all accounts on this computer.
In your previous Windows account, you'll drop the files you want to preserve into Public. Then you'll sign out of that Windows account and sign into your new one, where you will also be able to access the Public folder.
For the files I want to preserve, would that be my old game files? Like my old copy of my Sims 4 game?
@lushifii If you don't want to preserve anything, that's fine, but I thought you might want to keep your saves, and perhaps some saved households and builds (the Tray files). In either case, please put the files themselves into the new folder, for example put your individual saves in the new Saves folder rather than putting the entire old Saves folder in the new Sims 4 folder.
Oh, yes im still wanting to keep my saves. Sorry about the confusion. My question was which folders do I move and when playing the sims, do I have to logout and switch to my new admins account?
@lushifii My answer was, and is, that you move the folders called "saves" and "Tray" to the new account, but you only transfer the files inside those folders, not the folders themselves. So you'd drag the saves out of the folder they're in and put them in the new saves folder.
And yes, you'd switch accounts when you wanted to play Sims 4.
