Disappearing control panel

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  This problem is caused by mods, typically one that changes the user interface such as UI Cheats or those by TwistedMexi.  Remove any of those you have, delete localthumbcache.package, and test the game.  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.  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.
