  • Hi @kelblue34 

    Try the following

    • Close the game
    • Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
    • Repair the game
    • Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry
    • Start a new save game
    • Check if you still have the error
    • Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.

    @FlintNo1 This is a symptom with many possible causes. Are you playing with any content in your Mods folder? If so, please test without mods (and delete localthumbcache). See the first posts in the Mod and CC Issues Discussion thread for other tips on managing your mods right now, and other known issues.
