    I found how to fix this after an hour of repairing my game.

    Repairing the game did not the trick. But I realized that the GameVersion file in my Documents folder were not the same as the real game version.

    If you have the same problem, check in Documents>ElectronicArts>TheSims4 et find the GameVersion file. Open it, and see what number is written.

    Open you game. Check at the bottom of the home page of your game. If the game versions are different, change the one in the file you opened just before for it to match the one written in your game. Worked for me.

Without my mods I can np longer play Sims 4.  The latest update ALWAYS disables the MODS. Restarting makes NO difference. Really upset as without my few mods, I can no longer play Sims 4.?

I am really upset by this.  Some mods were created myself. My account Avatar has a mod, long blond hair!  I am sick to death of patches and updates upsetting game settings.  Not just Sims4, but other games, sims and apps. If this can not be fixed I will NOT be playing Sims4 anymore, and will NOT entertain buying any Origin/EA games again!!!

    @Lionhart127 Try deleting the options.ini file. You then need to reset all options to what you had them (as that resets everything to default) but usually changes stick after doing that.
