The thumbnails that are downloaded into the cache folder are supposed to be the ones that are loaded onto the Gallery pages that you see.  In other words, when you view the Community tab of the Gallery, the thumbnails that you see, as well as the ones on the next page down, those are the thumbnails that will be downloaded to the cache.  And as more Gallery pages are viewed, more thumbnails are loaded into the cache.  It's similar to how web images are cached locally when viewing web pages on a browser.  And for me the cache folder is automatically wiped the next time the game is launched.

- Have you tried without the mods folder and without CCleaner running on the cache?

- When you say that the options don't stay off, when do the options get re-enabled?  (The options should not be re-enabling on their own.)

- Other than CCleaner, are there any other apps/processes attached to the \Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\ folder (or anything within)

- How many Gallery items have you favorited?

- How many files are in your \Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Tray\ folder?  (This is where your Gallery downloads and "My Library" items are stored.  Each item in "My Library" consists of several files in the Tray folder)
