    @AlvaHe Going to merge this with an older thread of this.

    Did you delete localthumbcache after deleting mods ?

    Hi  @AlvaHe 

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

    Hi,

    I've now done a full factory reset, and when starting over the bug is gone, but when I took back my "saves" it came back.

    I tried in both my family and a random one.

    Would you be willing to share your save with me ?

    If so, please zip your saves folder and upload it somewhere like dropbox,, googledrive or OneDrive and PM me the link.

    @AlvaHe It seems there's a global policy that does that.

    Do you remember if you did that with one of your Sims ? Is any of them in the conservationist career ?

    @AlvaHe I think you can put another Sim in the branch and have them revoke or do another policy
