  • @rosie2498  Does the other High School Years-related content show up in your game, for example the CAS items or Build/Buy objects?  If not, did you buy HSY from Steam, EA, or somewhere else?

    Please also post a screenshot of any error you see.

    @rosie2498  It looks like you may have multiple issues here.  First, please try playing in a clean user folder.  Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you've moved but temporarily not read by the game.)  Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just start a new save and let me know which problems are still present.
