No there is no Electronic Arts folder

@MilleskovReally? That seems somewhat unpossible. Are you actually opening the Documents folder or are you using Spotlight search to try to find it (Spotlight search will not show it).
Just for fun, what happens if you do these things:
( 1 ) Let's just go to the folder!
In Finder hold Shift+Comand+G or pull down the Go menu and select "Go to folder...". In the dialog box that opens type: ~/Documents/Electronic Arts
Does Finder take you to this folder and open it, or does it "beep" and take you to Documents instead?
( 2 ) Let's use auto-complete!
As above, in Finder press Shift+Command+G. In the dialog box that opens type: ~/Documents/Ele[TAB] (where [TAB]is your tab key). Does that string then auto-complete to "~/Documents/Electronic Arts/"?
( 3 ) Let's manually make the directories!
If ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) don't bring happiness, let's see what happens if we just create the directories ourselves. To do this there are two options:
( a ) In Finder go to your Documents folder. Press Shift+Command+N or select New Folder Finder's File menu. A new folder will be created called Untitled. Rename it to "Electronic Arts" (no quotes). Go into this folder and repeat the steps above. Name this new folder "The Sims 4" (again, no quotes).
( b ) Use the command line. Open Terminal.app from your Utilities folder. In the shell window that opens type this exact command (punction is very important; be very precise):
mkdir -p "~/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/"
After you enter this command and hit "Return" the Electronic Arts and The Sims 4 folders will be created. It's a good idea to double-check this from within the Finder (see above).
Now try start The Sims from Origin. Do a bunch of files and folders get created inside the folders you just created?

Okay, so I got it to work, finally!
Do I just delete the "old" electronic Arts folder? (The one I renamed)
