[FIXED] [STEAM] HSY missing String files

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Steam-PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.90.358.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? open build and buy mode
What happens when the bug occurs? all High School Years expansion pack items show **DEBUG** in the name and description
What do you expect to see? the item name and description
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

I chose never used mods because I don't use any since my new saves and I did a factory reset before starting new ones.

I had just downloaded from Steam the new expansion pack and started playing and all the new items showed **DEBUG**.

I tried doing a factory reset just now and verifying integrity of game files, but no success.

Here are my saves: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1D8fxxAXl-wGyJLn-Tst8q3OgKkGUq3FV?usp=sharing

    @SimQARobo Yes.

    It's not only Steam, I have the same issue with Origin game version, PC/Windows.

    I play in Czech so it says **LADĚNÍ**, but it basically means "debug" (see attachment).

    Do you have these files:

    \Origin Games\The Sims 4\EP12\Strings_CZE_CZ.package

    \Origin Games\The Sims 4\Delta\EP12\Strings_CZE_CZ.package

    Okay, I managed to fix it by downloading the files you linked, @SimQARobo. Apologies for the trouble.
