    @emayg373 This fix isn't needed anymore. You should now find UI Scale in your game options inside the game.

Try this

  1. Open the following file in a text editor: documents\electronicarts\thesims4\options(.ini)
  2. Find the link uiscale = 
  3. If the value is not 100, change it to 100
  4. If it is 100, change it to something smaller (or bigger, unsure what)

I’m having the same problem. I have been clicking on the sims and then going to options.ini. I’ve changed the uiscale multiple times to different numbers but it’s still not working.

    @KBara62 What's your current resolution ? Does it make a difference if you change that to something bigger ?

      I’ve changed it to 100,50,150, and 200 and it makes no difference

        Hi @KBara62 

        I meant the resolution of the game itself.

        Are you playing at 4K ?
