Video Statio Bug

I recorded a video using the video station, and it saved to the inventory, but whenever I try to either edit, delete, or upload (basically interact with the recorded footage) the "blocked passage" thing pops up (like the footprints w/x which usually means they can't get to the object).

The video station is not blocked off, I have also tried moving it into other non-blocked areas and same issue.

Thanks!

    Because this is the mod related bug, the normal answer would be: "move your mods folder to the desktop, delete localthumbcache package file and fix the game in Origin" and it can help. If guilty is some CC or ordinary mod.

    But if it is very specific adult  mod In order to get rid of this completely, you have to do a factory reset of the game folder as described in this post:
    http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199
    and stop using this mod, because it will always break the video station.

    But if you don't want to give up this mod there is another solution. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/my-sim-wont-use-video-station/m-p/7358615#M133221

    Can you tell me which mod is causing the video station to not work?

    This answer of mine is very old
    First, check if you've added a chair to this video station. It won't work without a chair.

    @Peanutjelly231 I think what you needed was a chair for the video station in front of the pc. The description for the cheaper station says you need a chair. If it is not the chair then it is the mod. The workaround would be the freebuild code. (Open up the cheat dialogue box by hitting ctrl + shift + c on your keyboard. Then type in testingcheats true and hit Enter to make sure that cheats are on. Then type in bb. Enablefreebuild and hit Enter.) Then make a small room there and save to library the video station what is there. When you put it in a sim house it will work. As long as you use this mod, keep this video station in your library. It will always work
