Hello. I have an ASUS Tuf gaming laptop. I installed The Sims 4 a while ago. However, the game is starting to take up a lot of space on my OS folder as you can see in the attached image. Can I move the Sims 4 application as well as all the folders required to run the application to an external hard drive? If yes, how? Thank you in advance, have a good evening.

Hello
There is no image.
No, you cannot move anything on a PC.
You would need to completely reinstall the game and install (partially) on the disk, and even then, if you use an external drive, you would likely face latency issues.
The ultimate solution would be to replace the PC's hard drive with a larger one and "clone" the existing disk (the entire thing) onto the new drive; then it would work.
But not all laptops have easily accessible hard drives; in fact, it’s becoming less common, and often you need to disassemble the laptop.
Best regards
