I can't sell or open restaurant.

I am having a problem with Dine out.  I tried to add funds to a restaurant and I could not do it.  I then tried to sell the restaurant and buy a retail store and when I went in game yesterday 5/27/2020 my sim did not own the retail store, still owned the restaurant and still could not add funds.  The household has more than enough to add funds.  Please help.

  • There is a major glitch going on in my game where I can not transfer household funds to the business.  Any help would be appreciated.  Yes I do play with mods and yes I did try without mods and no it did not work.

    To transfer funds to or from a restaurant, you can

    1. From the Sim's home lot with an adult Sim selected:
      Select the icon "Venue Funds Transfer" at the bottom left of your game window: 

      OR...
    2. From the Sim's home lot OR while this sim is on the venue lot with an adult Sim selected:
      Select the icon "Transfer Business Funds" at the bottom right of your game window: 
    3. Then add an amount to transfer and how you want it transferred:

    For directions on how to sell the restaurant please look for that topic on this page:  https://sherigr.com/frequently-asked-questions-for-sims-4/#restaurant

    @missiepooh45 When you tried without Mods did you also delete your localthumbnailcache.package file? 

    • Go to Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4
    • Delete the localthumbnailcache.package file in your “The Sims 4” folder

    After doing this please repair the game: 

    • open Origin
    • click ‘Game Library’
    • right-click Sims 4 > Repair Game
    • Make sure to let it run until it’s completed all repairs (it will do the base-game first, then run through each of your expansions/packs).
