The following steps describe the manual moving process by the example of Sims 4. Because of this, your save games are not available in a different language.

If your saves/settings are missing, close the game and manually move them over.įor some games – especially Sims – the game creates a localized user folder.

If you see your saves/settings in the game, you’re are done and you can continue to play.

You need to start the game once for the game to create a user folder. If you want to continue with the same saves in the new language you need to manually move them over (see below).

If you had previous save games and other user files they might be missing.

If you install the game for the first time in that language, you need to agree to the End user License Agreement.

The files are verified and installed for every single pack you own so please be patient with the process and only continue after it’s all done.

Wait until the game has verified all the files and installed the needed language files (this will happen each time you change the language through Origin, even if you had the game installed in the other language before).

Only the here listed languages are available to you.

Click on Advanced Launch Options and choose the desired language from the drop down menu.

Right-click on the game and choose Game Properties.

Check your game if there are options to change the language through a launcher or ingame (settings or options menu). For some games those steps are only necessary once, for others for changing the audio language or even for both text and audio.
