Game Help:No Downloads Folder

No Downloads Folder

Problem

For a reason nobody knows, the Sims 2 install doesn't always create a Downloads folder.

Solution

This is actually a very commonly asked question, and yet it has the simplest of answers: create the folder.

• Click the Start Menu and My Documents, which is in the top right.

Double EA Games and double click The Sims 2 which will take you here:

• Click on File then New and Folder:

• The folder should be highlighted ready to rename. Type in Downloads

• If the folder isn't highlighted, click it, then click File.. Rename and type in Downloads

• The final path will be: My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Downloads

• Note the capital D and the plural s on the end.

All done.
