gameplay options greyed out in options menu

I have no mods in my game right now...

So here is my issue, when I am on the Sims Main Menu page if I click on the "options" button in the upper right corner the menu opens up, but the "gameplay" button is greyed out. 

Yes I have tried running it as an administrator, tried to go in through origin and in through the Sims4 desktop button. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the game multiple. I have tried to replace the options.ini document...none of these are working. 

Now granted I can play the game, I just wanted to adjust the lifespan...so frustrating not desperately frustrating.

Thanks.

    Hi @canaanlilli,

    Gameplay options can only be changed during gameplay (CAS, Live mode and Build mode). That's why that option is greyed out in Main menu.

    Not true lol. I’ve had the option to go into the Gameplay SETTINGS many times and only know is it greyed out for me. I have cleared all of my mods and my games cache but I can’t do much else otherwise it’ll get rid of my games progress.
