Uninstalled Sims 4, but files are still there.

Hello, 

The other day I uninstalled Sims 4, but I can still find the files for sims 4. Why would I still have these files if I had uninstalled Sims 4 and would it be fine if I were to delete said files?

  • Luc1aA1​  The Sims 4 folder in Documents > Electronic Arts contains user data: saves, saved households and builds, mods and custom content, etc.  It's not supposed to be deleted when you uninstall the game, or else there would be many many unhappy players who uninstalled and reinstalled to try to troubleshoot a game or system issue only to realize they'd also lost their saves.

    If you don't care about preserving your saves or other content, you can manually trash this folder.
