Disappearing control panel

Question

I just started playing Sims again and I don't have a lot of storage on my laptop but I cleared up enough space to download and fit everything plus some new cc. When I started playing, when I started playing things went smoothly, there were no problems until I went into build mode (from live mode) and everything at the bottom completely disappeared. I couldn't get to manage worlds or back into build mode. When I finally got to manage worlds the entire screen went black but I could still go into the gallery and settings.I've updated all of my mods.

@shayskyo6&nbsp; This problem is caused by mods, typically one that changes the user interface such as UI Cheats or those by TwistedMexi.&nbsp; Remove any of those you have, delete localthumbcache.package, and test the game.&nbsp; If the problem is gone, you can look for updated versions of the mods.

If the problem is still present, you'll need to test your other mods in the same way.&nbsp; Custom content wouldn't cause this issue, but mods and cc can be packaged together, so make sure you go over your Mods folder carefully.

I took out all of my mods but unfortunately I'm having the same problem. I going to try removing everything.

@shayskyo6&nbsp; If removing your entire Mods folder and deleting localthumbcache (again) doesn't help, please clear Origin's cache:

and repair the game: open your Origin game library, right-click on the Sims 4 icon, and select Repair.
