It fix my problem, thanks a lot!

**deevo** · le 8 février 2019

Thanks! File updated!

Mani de Alencar · le 8 février 2019

Now I have another problem: when I change the game path and save, it doesn't save

**deevo** · le 8 février 2019

@Mani de Alencar

Did you got an error message?

Was it the first time ever you installed S4TI?

Open HELP>System Diagnostics and check if your changes has been saved.

If not, as a workaround, you can try to manualy edit the configuration file:

C:\ProgramData\TeameeVo\Sims 4 Tray Importer\Sims4.GameInfos.Settings.xml

Locate GameInstallation platform="win":

  <GameInstallation platform="win">
    <Name>The Sims 4</Name>
    <Locale>[Auto]</Locale>
    <InstallDir>%ProgramFiles%\Origin Games\The Sims 4\</InstallDir>
    <Launcher>[InstallDir]Game\Bin\TS4.exe</Launcher>
  </GameInstallation>

Replace the content of InstallDir by the current path of the game.

I did not get an error message, I just click "save" and when I open settings the path is back to default. I already tried to change manually as you said in another post, but it seems to do nothing.

This is the system diagnostics:

@Mani de Alencar your configuration file is (almost) empty, so there must an internal error that prevents the change to be saved.

Try this, to reset all settings to their default value:

Press Win+R, then type "C:\Program Files\TeameeVo\Sims 4 Tray Importer (S4TI) - x64\S4TI.exe" -reset

Have you tried the 32bit version?.

Mani de Alencar · le 8 février 2019

I tried to reset and it didn't work. And about the 32bit version, the link for the download is wrong

There's nothing wrong here, the file has simply been replaced by the hotfix.

So just download the official version (not 64bit).

If nothing works, fixing the missing 'Install Dir' key in the registry should allow the auto detection to work as expected.

Open Notepad then paste:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Maxis\The Sims 4]
"Install Dir"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Origin Games\\The Sims 4\\"

Replace "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Origin Games\\The Sims 4\\" with the current path of the game, don't forget to replace the '\' by '\\'.

Save the file as s4regfix.reg then close Notepad, double-click on s4regfix.reg to update the registry.

sorry, I didn't understand the last step
