Title: Nothing inside the Sims 2 folder?
Post by: UltimaLink on 2011 March 21, 06:46:33
Recently, I installed the Sims 2 on my PC that runs Windows 7, and when I went to install the custom content I wanted to install, there was nothing inside the Sims 2 folder? Anyone know how to fix this? The game runs fine, the only problem is that there's nothing inside the Sims 2 folder. Is it because I'm running Windows 7? Or is there anyone else that has had a similar problem?

I don't have Windows 7, but I did hear from others who have it that for some reason with Windows 7 two Sims 2 folders are created in the Documents folder. One will be empty and the other should have all the files in it. In any case, there would have to be a folder located somewhere on your hard drive for the game to run.

One of these two "EA Games" folders is a 'shared' folder, that is the empty one. You can delete it, the game won't break because of this.
