        @TheSimsDirect 

        Hi there

        There is a save before the issue happened and a save after that.
        However, when I tested it myself, I couldn't reproduce it. (only tried 3 times)
        Is that okay?
        If you put in the notify.Glob file generated in The Sims 4 folder where this save is located with the save after issue happened, the Notification wall will still be displayed, is this file not necessary? Or, if there is a file that can confirm what I did at that time, would it be better to send it as well?
        The location where the problem occurred is the location of the image below in the Galloping Gulch area.


        The time it happened was a little before 10am in-game time. (You can check the contents of the Notification wall)

        Unfortunately, I deleted (sold) the debug item after I took the confirmation screenshot, so it's gone from the household inventory. (save after problem occurred)
