    Worked perfectly thank you !!!
  • @gseric4721
    Brilliant. I am somewhat a techy guy, but I've never been aware of this before. I was about to just move my Documents folder completely, but no need to now XD (edit): Oh, also, make sure to leave in the comments to right-click on the Sims 4 folder and not the Electronic Arts folder when creating the link. That might have confused some people. It definitely confused me XD
  • @mariuhm
    How do I add new mods to the game if itā€™s in my drive? Thank you for the great video! ā¤ (Also, how would I go through the process of fixing broken mods or updating them)
  • @simcityty4255

  • @samislittlelife

  • @tainaturner5940
    im stuck at step 12 i have a gaming computer I'm sure if its different but its not showing pick link source
  • @ThePersianRoyalty
    Hello please I need help. Your video is the only one that allowed me to follow the steps all the way through. Although I have done this nothing is popping up in my game. I do not have an active cloud storage that I know of because I have never opened one up. The link is there so the junction and everything should be working fine. Do I need to transfer the ea app to the folder as well? I'm trying to get my mods to pop up and ccs. Also I have the dlc unlocker and something else. If I want those to pop up in my game do I just do the pick link source and junction part as well?
  • @ItsMeeeesh
    So when you do that. When you add more mods like hair or clothes. Do you add it to the external hard drive or the one in the documents folder? Was doing this because I didnā€™t have enough room on my computer and wouldnā€™t let me add more mods but I have a 5 tb external hard drive
  • @naeehwacore
    Hi, do these same steps work if I only want to move the Mods folder over to my external hard drive?
  • @Babbylazio
    Does this also carry over the mods? If not what should I do to carry them over?
  • @jadewhitehead1502
    If I unplug my external hardrive on accident will I have to redo the process ?or if I unplug it safely on purpose?
  • @sadeenoch2643
    i need more storage on my computer do i delete the sims came and any folders on there ?
  • @mama281222
    Mine is still saying low disk space. My game is currently undergoing an update. I did what was said in this video, but I canā€™t update my game because of my low disk space. What do I do now?
  • @eliminate100.
    Do u know if it backs up? Or how can I back it up? Because I had used onedrive and I don't think it can backup any files right,m ? And everything I download mods it doesn't show in the game ? Why?
