    @HalcyonClover20  Did you switch the keyboard layout you're using, for example from one language to another?  If so, try switching back, at least temporarily, and see whether it makes a difference.

    If that doesn't help, or you never switched layouts, please restart your computer just in case it's really that simple.  If that doesn't help either, go into Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 and move options.ini to the desktop.  This will reset all your in-game options, and if this doesn't make a difference and you don't want to redo all those options, you can delete the new options.ini and put the old one back.

    After checking, yes I had my keyboard layout changed, I'm not used to Windows 10. I have solved it, thank you!
