Sims 4 clock time and game time are not in sync

Sims 4 clock time and game time are not in sync as in the children normally go to school at 8am but aren't going until 10/11am. Its been happening for a while now.

  • Let's try a clean folder approach then

    To do so, reset 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.

    Hey I have the same issue. I have tried all of the things listed. I pin pointed that it was caused by my base game, not my mods. It usually gets fixed after I clear the caches or do some more troubleshooting but eventually it always comes back. Any more suggestions?

    Hi everyone, 

    Since this is a rather old thread that hasn't been updated in some time I've gone ahead and locked it. If you're having trouble with a similar issue please create a new thread, and we'll take a look. 

    Thanks!
