My Sims 4 library filled with duplicated bugged pictures and Sims save as CC

There is this annoying bug or glitch with the Sims 4 gallery. I don't know much about CC or mods and I don't use them or haven't downloaded any software to install them; as far as I know, I don't use...

    It didn't work but after returning back to the game after a few weeks, I accepted a couple of updates, emptied my entire tray and just re-downloaded everything I wanted from the gallery and the problem was gone, as far as I can see. Happy about that.

    Thanks again 🙂

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.

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)
  • 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.

As for the downloads being marked as CC, there's a few problems around. Check the threads listed here: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/READ-FIRST-Compiled-list-of-Bugs/m-p/3445209#Gallery
