Sims 4 Problems

★ Novice

I recently got a new computer and I had Origin and The Sims 4 downloaded on my old one and they worked fine, but I haven't been able to get my new computer to work with The Sims 4 yet. I downloaded Origin and The Sims 4 on my new computer, and even though I'm logged into my Origin account it isn't recovering my Sims 4 account. How do I get all of my progress onto my new computer? I've been stressing over it for about 2 months and I've tried contacting you before but got no response. 

 

Thank you for your time, 

Laci

Copy the Saves and tray folders from the old computer to the new one.

How do I do that? Can I just email them to myself and save them?

Use an USB thumbdrive.

What exactly do I need to copy because I just copied the entire sims 4 file and it’s still not working?

As I wrote you need to copy the Saves and Tray folders. Replacing the two that were created on your new computer when you installed the game there.

Apparently I don’t know where to find those 2 specific files. If you could direct me on where they are that would be great.
