hola


so pretty self explantry but i accidentally merged the sims 4 folder in documents/electronic arts with the one in program files... now i am scared to start the gamebecause i am afraid it will do something bad to either my pc or the game in general... i am going to screenshot what the folder looks like in hopes that someone can point out which files need to be removed to make it safe to srtat thegame, thx Sad

(i actually deleted the ones which i was sure of like tray, saves, screenies, custom music, last exceptions and las crashes)

First off, nothing (bad) will happen if you start the game in its current "state". The additional files and folders are ignored by the game.

That said, from Screenshot #1 delete all the files that come after the folder "VideoCameraStates". About that folder, I don't know what exactly that is. But I know it isn't part of the actual game installation. So move or delete that folder out, too.
