CC furniture showing up in game despite not being in mods folder

Hello there! I am not sure if this is the correct place to post this but hopefully it is.

I've spent the past two weeks searching the internet for a solution but could not find anything so this is my last resort.

About last year, I had downloaded this piece of custom content furniture which was a standalone edit of the Cobra Cabana bed from City Living. It was shorter and did not have the curtains. When I tried it out in game, it did not work so I had deleted it. When I opened my game again, I noticed it was still there. It has been for a while now.

I had removed all my mods and played the game vanilla for a week and it had still remained. I even tried repairing it but alas! It was stubborn and remained.

I have searched for it on the in-game pop up listing all my cc and its name was not there. I had searched every hard drive, in every folder and subfolder I have on my computer and yet it does not show up. I do not remember where I had downloaded it but it's annoying me to the max.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

    Could you post a picture of the pesky thing ?
  • Here is what it looks like in buy mode. Whenever I place it down, it just deducts the money and disappears.

    Factory Reset

    Hi

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
