.package files aren't showing up?

I have done all of these put together and it's still not working. Only about 15 out of 135 of my mods show up in my game. I am so frustrated. I've spent hours downloading mods just to find out they don't work in my game.

Hello @cairo123
Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then add back the "options.ini" or "options " file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" and "custom music "folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders that have the same name.
Don't put back the old mods folder. Instead, place your cc/mods into the newly generated mods folder. Then test to see if that helps.

I'm having a similar problem, except none of my CC will show up in game, and I've tried all the steps listed on here.

Listen y’all,

I’ve tried 20 billion ways. I’ve enabled my mods, I’ve copied and pasted from one place to another, I’ve compressed and de compressed. I’ve started to play and exited the game to re enter and see if they show, but nothing. What do I do? NONE of my mods are showing up in my game. Please help.

Hello
Do you use One Drive? If you do it could be causing this issue, Try seeing if there is a mods folder in One Drive . The game may be using that mods folder instead. One Drive can cause issues, It would be best to unsync One Drive and Sims 4.

If you don’t use One Drive, try using the search bar on your computer , and search to see if there may be another mods folder on your computer that the game is using instead of the one directly in the sims 4 folder.
Some simmers have found that a mods folder had been incorrectly generated in their custom music folder. Check all the folders there as well.

Hello @mimithestar13
I am sorry that you are having these issues. Try doing what I suggested in the above post and see if there is another mods folder somewhere else on your computer that the game is using instead of the correct one in Documents-Electronic Arts -Sims 4 folder

Hello
Do you use One Drive or Google Drive? If you do, has a mods folder perhaps been generated there?

I tried this as well and it did not work for me, sadly. I have like 78 mods but only like 20 of them are working. So much time spent for nothing in return lol.

Hello
Some mods have been broken by the latest patches. It may help to go back to where you downloaded them from and see if updated versions have been released.

Hello
I am just checking. If the mods are cc package files, make sure that you have extracted the package files out of the zipped folder or the rar file, if they come in zipped :or rar formats. The package files then go into the mods folder. The files need to be extracted out of the zip folder or the rear file.
Try placing the package files directly into the mods folder without being in sub folders.
Check that the files are for sims 4, and not for sims 2 or 3.
