Hello!

So I have this old computer with old Sims 4 saves on it that I would like to transfer to my new computer, but my new computer already has saves on it. If I transfer the old saves onto my new computer will anything bad happen to my new saves or will everything be fine.

Also, should I transfer the tray files if I want the same worlds as well?

You may want to rename the save files in the Saves folder, so they don't overwrite the old files. The link below can help with that.

Transferring the Tray folder should be fine, files shouldn't be overwritten. These files are what you've saved to your library. Saved Sims, houses, rooms, and community lots.

If you want the same game saves or worlds, you'll want to transfer over your saves, but again, rename them so they don't overwrite the older files that are already there.

Just in case you're not familiar with how to transfer Sims 4 from your old computer to new computer, the how-to is below:
