I actually have done that LOL I guess I forgot to mention it. When my game wasn't working a couple days ago I did that and it worked for one night and then went back to not working at all. I'll try it again though! Is there anything else you have in mind besides that?
I've also noticed, when my expansion packs are redownloading it always gets stuck on city living, should I also remove that EP from my folders and re install it? Or should I do that with all of my expansion packs?
I'm going to remove the sims 4 folder now I'll let you know asap if its working

After it worked for one night with the clean folder, did you move content from your previous folder back into it? City Living should work, it is installed despite getting stuck?

- 2 years ago@Bluebellflora Yeah I moved all of my mods back into the mods folder as well as saves/tray and it seemed to be fine.. (minus an elevator not being in one of the apartments in city living but thats not the main issue lol) but it is definitely installed because it doesn't say download or add to queue, it just automatically starts redownloading and then getting stuck. I took out sims 4 folder and restarted origin, and removed everything from my queue so it wouldn't get stuck again, but now my actual sims game is stuck on loading :/ so I can't check to see if it works. Also, I really appreciate you for reaching out so soon I've been trouble shooting for three days straight and really appreciate this help

Thanks, very helpful info 🙂
For the not launching issue - you moved your Mods, Library items and saves back into the new Sims 4 folder and it stopped working again, the issue is in one of those folders. I would start with a new Sims 4 folder again but only move your saves back. Play for a couple of days and see if it stops launching again. If it seems fine, move the Tray files back and again play for a couple of days. If all is still well, add your Mods back in small batches, testing the game after adding each batch.
For the City Living issue - try manually resetting Origin https://bluebellflora.com/how-to-uninstall-origin-on-a-mac/- 2 years ago@Bluebellflora So, my saves/tray/mods are actually not in my sims 4 folder at all right now and it still won't launch. My sims 4 game started to stop at the finalizing stage as well, after taking all of my expansions out of queue. So I just uninstalled origin the hard way, and reinstalled and it seemed to fix the sims not fully downloading. However, now when I try to play it won't load at all and it gets stuck with a color wheel.. So there's no mods/saves/tray in it at all right now and it's still not working ☹️ I wish the mods were the answer lol. The other day when I was trying to get it work and it actually started working I was putting my mods back one folder at a time (I have them organized by date) so I could find out which mods were giving me trouble, and took out all of the ones that were having issues. I'm sorry if this is getting annoying I really just don't know what to do at this point :/
