@Ambroses_Wish There's a file (not a folder) called options.ini, inside Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4, that stores your in-game settings. That file can become corrupted and refuse to save any changes, including the ones to reenable mods and custom content. Deleting the file and allowing the game to spawn a new one fixes that issue, although you would also need to redo all your other settings as well.
However, after the most recent patch, a number of players have been reporting symptoms of a problem with writing to this Sims 4 folder, including the symptom you describe. The underlying issue is that an antivirus program blocks the game's access to the folder. Please see the first post in this thread for more details and suggested workarounds:
I've tried to do that but after the new december update, it has messed up my game. I've tried everthing but i can not get my mods/cc back no matter how hard i try. It wont let me enable the mods button i've deleted that file and the game spawned a new one but nothing works. I want my cc back on help pleaseeee!
