Help!!! Mods//cc wont work on desktop??

So I usually play the sims on my macbook, but storage has been a big issue for me so my boyfriend tried to set it up on his desktop for me. The game is installed, I'm logged into my account, all of my purchased content is there. But every time I try to install any custom content (Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods), I don't get the pop-up when I launch the game. The mods are enabled, and I've restarted the game countless times. 

I've never had a single issue when playing on my macbook, some help would be so greatly appreciated!

  • I'm assuming since you said mods are enabled you have both the enable cc/mods box & the script mods box checked. if not, check both.

    go to game options > other > view custom content button
    is there anything listed in the window? 
    if not, your mods/cc are installed incorrectly somehow. this could be anything from missing files (make sure you have Resource.cfg - it should automatically be created by the game, but if not, you can download it here), having files in subfolders too deep to be read, not unzipping files before installing (remember, mac unzips automatically, but windows does not), incompatible file types, etc.
    if there is content listed, is the show at startup box checked? if not, that's obviously why you're not getting the pop-up.
