Re: Sims 4 freezes leaving build mode/red border/can't click

Whenever I turn on Sims 4, everything is fine until I get to the playing part. I choose the house and join in, however my screen kind of freezes then. I can see my sims just standing there, I have a red border around my screen, there isn't that box with the time. However, I can still move my camera and the only button that I can still press on my screen is the manage worlds button (the settings and build mode button don't work). I tried the "fix game" option on Origin, but it did nothing. Help?

    @JazzyK321  I've moved your post to the Sims 4 PC tech section.

    This is usually caused by an outdated or broken mod.  Try removing the UI cheats mod, if you have it.  If that doesn't help, or you don't use it, please move your entire Mods folder to your desktop, delete localthumbcache.package, and test.  If the problem is gone, you can add your mods back in batches, testing each time to see whether the issue returns.  If and when it does, you'll know that one of the mods you just added back is the culprit, and you can split that batch and test until you've found out which one.
