Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Sims 4?
Copy the whole Sims 4 folder with the game closed. Saves, mods and tray travel together. Restoring means putting the folder back before launch. EA transfer guides bless this exact move.
Saves, Mods or Tray?
Slot saves live in saves while package and script mods sit in Mods. Tray holds library households and lots as binary sets. Keep all three siblings together.
