mods folder hygiene: keep the game fast

a once-a-month routine to keep loading times under 90 seconds.

the routine

  1. clear thumb cache — delete localthumbcache.package
  2. dedupe — Sims 4 Mod Manager finds dupes automatically
  3. archive seasonal CC — move halloween/christmas sets out of mods folder when not in use
  4. prune the obvious — if you haven't used a CAS item in 3 months, archive it
psst — want the starter pack?
