[NEEDS SAVES] Sims never turn into Plantsims after eating forbidden fruit/cheats

How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.65.77.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure only seems to be my game.
What happens when the bug occurs? Forbidden fruit of the Plantsim doesn't do anything and using the cheat doesn't work to make sims into plantsim, not even random sims.
What do you expect to see? I expect my sims to turn into Plantsims through the cheat and forbidden fruit.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

‌

Sims will never turn into Plantsims even with the cheat or eating the forbidden fruit of the plantsim. I tried with random sims walking by and it doesn't work. I asked my friend to use the "make into plantsim" cheat and it worked for her but not for me. I'm new here so sorry if this is not where I am supposed to post my question.

I tried removing my mods folder

repairing the game

backing up and resetting the game

restarting computer and game

repairing the game again

still doesn't work.

@cynthiaj89 Which way did you get the fruit ? Through BuyDebug or the tree ? Did you use the cheat on the shift-click menu ?

I've tested all means and can't replicate this.

I got the beans through the debug menu and the stump,
put the beans in the stump,
the tree popped up
I went into the magic tree portal,
got the forbidden fruit,
planted it,
Harvested it
Ate fruit.... Nothing happened
So then I shift click on my sim
Select "make into Plantsim DEBUG"... Nothing happens
So I type "control+shift +C"
Enter "testingcheats true"
Repeat the shift click cheat and... Nothing happens
So I ask my friend (who has Sims 4 PC too) to shift click her sim and select "make into Plantsim DEBUG" and... Her Sim immediately turns into a Plantsim! 😂
After this I tried all of the steps mentioned in my original post but nothing changes. I took out my mods folder and everything so I'm confused as to why it works for her and not me? 😕
Thank you for your time! ❤️

@cynthiaj89 Could you test if it works on a different save ?

@crinrict just tried it but it still doesn't work. It just doesn't seem to exist in my game at all?

@cynthiaj89 Do you get any sort of animation as if they change and then they don't or does nothing ever happen ?

@crinrict Literally nothing happens.

@crinrict Is there anywhere I can report this besides here? I kept getting directed here and nowhere else.

@cynthiaj89 Reporting it here is fine. I just don't have a solution.

QA monitors this forum.

Maybe others have similar experiences and can chime in.

I am having this same exact issue! I got my beans and stump by purchasing them after getting my sim to Gardening Skill level 10. No debug buys or anything. I've repaired the game, reset my sim. I obtained the fruit by going through the portal. I'm running vanilla install, have never used mods and I am not using any custom content, either. I then tried to use the testingcheats option and it too did nothing. I get no animation or reaction to eating the fruit other than the moodlet "Better than Expected" from eating a harvestable. I did plant the fruit and have eating multiple fruit at the same time.
Edit: My Sim is a witch...
