Not able to click on objects or sims or options sims 4

I've been unable to click on any objects, sims or anything.

Travel, phone and build mode still works.

I've used the ORGIN REPAIR thing, and restarted my computer TWICE.

(Windows 10, Asus laptop.)

I am a avid modder so I'll try disabling the mods temporally and seeing how that does.

Is this a bug from the wedding patch or a genuine issue?

    @myi4wa8s65g1 What deleted your game? If you mean that moving the user folder to create a new one did that, you still have your saves folder to copy saves back.

    For not being able to click on anything, this is part of testing if it's a problem with your mods or your game installation. If a new save works, you can now copy your old saves back to the new folder and test that. If an old save works, the issue was your mods.

  • Apologies if this is a dead feed and not relevant to the solution for OPs post but since this is the first thread that popped up for my question on "sims 4 not clicking", I'm going to post my personal solution as of right now after 3 days of trying to figure out if my Mods were busted.

    I tried repairing, removing all mods, uninstalling the EA app to no avail.

    I also noticed that I couldn't click in game but also immediately after quitting unless I went into Task manager and "end task" the EA App.

    So after everything else I decided to turn off the "in-game overlay" in EA App settings and voila! That's what worked for me, so good luck anyone reading this! 🙂

    I tried removing mods folder, repairing the game, deleting the localthumb..(cannot remember the name), or even re-installing the game.
    None of the above worked for me

    I also tried turning off in-game overlay but it's still not working

    Somebody help!
