When I was 12 my Mum gave me my first PC, it was a second hand work PC with a tiny HDD.

There wasn't enough space to install The Sims, so I deleted the Program Files folder, thinking I don't need any programs, only games.

I bricked my PC lol. Needed a tech to reinstall Windows. Thankfully, I could tell him I needed enough space for the game and he debloated it as much as he could. Legend.

Did your Sims home become minimalist to save space?

Reminds me of my younger sibling inheriting my first PC - 486 with a 500 MB hard drive that I had assembled from several scrap computers - and trying to install this game to it. It did just about fit and there was even enough RAM (48 MB instead of the minimum 32), but the CPU wasn't compatible, since the game required the MMX instruction set.
