So, i need some help with my Sims 4 game.

@Sweety-218  Please uninstall Sims 4 and reinstall it to another folder that's not within Documents, for example the default location is fine:

C:\Program Files\EA Games

Having the game's program files in Documents is asking for trouble in a few different ways.

Additionally, please search Windows for Command Prompt, open it, and copy and paste this command:

reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" /v "Personal"

Post the result here.  This is the full file path to this user's Documents directory, as determined by Windows.  A nonstandard location can cause Sims 4 to use the wrong location for the user folder as well.

● OK, so I uninstalled and reinstalled the game into the C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 4 default location and typed in what you wanted me to type into my Windows Command Prompt and if you see the file I've attached, those are the results I've got. I'm not sure if I've done it right.

● I'm still able to play the game, it's just that I want to be able to download Sims 4 mods normally again where I can start by clicking on my documents folder instead of my User's folder first.

@Sweety-218  As I suggested, the problem is the location of Documents.  It should be one of these:

C:\Users\[your username]\Documents

C:\Users\[your username]\OneDrive\Documents

But instead it's this:

C:\OneDrive\Documents

Please let me know whether you want OneDrive backing up your Sims 4 user folder (saves, mods, etc.) or not.  If you have a lot of mods and custom content, I'd suggest not because OneDrive storage is only free up to 5 GB.  Going over the limit means paying or dealing with various errors and the possibility of lost data.  But if you have less than 5 GB of data to back up, or you don't mind paying for a subscription, it's fine to use OneDrive.  Let me know what you'd like to do.

● Hmmm, interesting. I'm not exactly OK with OneDrive backing up my Sims 4 User folder. I don't know how this is even happening if I've deleted and uninstalled OneDrive from my computer. I figured OneDrive was probably the issue somehow.

● Even when I go to my OneDrive account on the website, there's nothing on there. And it says that I have 0.1GB used of 5GB.

● OK, I think I did everything correctly and restarted my computer and now my EA folder is in the documents folder under my name C:\Users\[my name] but how do I get the EA folder under the documents folder on File Explorer? 

● I'm asking this because most people that download mods for the Sims 4 don't have to click through their users folder, and they usually go straight to documents. Now, we're making some progress, lol.🤔

@Sweety-218  In your screenshot, right-click the Documents icon and select Properties > General, and you'll see the full file path, listed as the Location.  I'm guessing this Documents folder is a different one than the game is using, but double-check anyway.  You can choose to unpin it from Quick Access (also in the right-click menu) and pin the correct Documents folder instead.

You could pin the Sims 4 folder or the Electronic Arts folder, in addition to or instead of Documents, although I would personally prefer to keep Documents pinned.

● OK, so I've now pinned the correct Documents folder under quick access. Thanks so much for your help! I have one more question, though, out of curiosity: If I delete the old and incorrect documents folder, will it affect my laptop significantly in any way? Or should I keep it but leave it unpinned from quick access?🤔

@Sweety-218  I would leave the old folder in place.  Windows has lots of default folders that mostly don't do anything but whose disappearance could cause unexpected behavior from the system.  That doesn't mean you need to keep any files or folders inside Documents, only that the Documents folder itself should be present

● Hey, I know it's SUPER late but I just wanted to say thank you so much for your help. And everything worked out. I sincerely appreciate it! And I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!🙏🏿
