Hello Crin, it's me. So, this error doesn't seem to cause any "noticeable issues" as far as I can tell when I tested it, but it does seem to happen pretty much 100% of the time, and it's been happening enough on the MCCC discord that I've decided to test myself and make an AHQ post about it if I could replicate it.
It happened in my "normal" (i.e. with mods) save, too, but for verification, I created a NEW save that had never seen mods before, and took out my mods folder entirely. I got the error still.

The Sim still gains the selected Skill and the action doesn't seem to "cancel out", which, I know isn't the most "FIX THIS NOW" bug, but it's been something we've seen enough to deem annoying and at least having a place to send players to so they know it's an issue would be nice. The Last Exception I received is attached.

Thank you have have a nice day.

I've tried going to different lots, I've tried restarting the game, and I've tried resetting my sim. The menu appears but when my sim goes to leave the lot she sort of glitches and doesn't leave. I do have CC although all of it is cosmetic (skins, hair, objects ect). I do have the newest expansion installed (Eco Living) so I'm not certain if it's the CC or my game.
Thanks in advance,
Spooky

Happened to me as well, as I received an LE as soon as my male YA sim returned from the fitness skill class he had attended. He did receive a fitness skill point.
Here is my LE:

@beyandstallion Do you have any lastExceptions happening with that ?

You can find them in your doc folder

If you have any file, could you add this to your post ?

either create a .rar file and upload that or c/p the content to a post within spoiler tags

Hi @OutaMana - Could you try a repair of your game, to see if that fixes the issue? Exit The Sims 4 completely, then right-click the TS4 icon in Origin and choose "Repair". Let it run through the base game and any packs you have installed. Then check to see if you still have the issue.

If this doesn't help, some of the cc may be incompatible. Try resetting your files without a reinstall, following the directions here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/READ-FIRST-Troubleshooting-your-Game/m-p/3621199#Resetting

Let us know how it goes
