my sim is not with my household

Hi, so I started a new game in the sims and I made 3 sims and one dog, but when I finish and move to a household one sims seems to not be in my household anymore? He'll be there with us and I'll recieve notifications about him, but I can't access him at all and he isn't on the bottom left corner where you click on the sims. This is for the PC on Sims 4. Can anyone help me? I've deleted all mods I had and recreated him over and over again hoping he'd be with the household but it always ends the same way. Also, when i go back to edit the sims on create the sim he is deleted out of the household.

    HI @pjmwrld 

    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.
