Sims 4 Won't Launch
I saw someone else on here have a similar experience to mine except they seemed to fix theirs, mine doesn't ever seem to fix. I've been playing Sims4 for a while now and have had zero issues, it's al...
@564656465 As a test, please try playing in a clean user folder. Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content. (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you moved but temporarily not read by the game.) Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just load the game, enable mods and custom content (both settings), quit, and see whether you can reload.
If this works, download a fresh copy of one mod confirmed compatible with the current patch level (1.112) and see whether the game loads and the mod shows up.
If the game won't open with mods and cc enabled, please let me know which antivirus you use and which app (EA or Steam) you used to install the game this time around.
So it did work at first, but now I can't get my mods to work. I've made sure they are the correct file, in the correct spot, and all up to date and compatible with the current sims version. I also made sure that the Resource.cfg file was included in my Mods folder. The mods are in the correct spot but do not show up in game, the game is running fine, my cc mods and script mods are turned on and allowed but do not show up. Maybe I'm just doing something terribly wrong, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling all my mods and trying different ones, that are all up-to-date.
@564656465 Please post a screenshot of the contents of the Mods folder, as in, I'd like to see the names and dates on some of these mods.
Please also confirm that the file path to one of your mods exactly matches what the game is reading, up to the Sims 4 folder. Here's how to see the latter:

For the mods, right-click one file and select Properties > General, then look at the Location. The reason this is imporant is that your computer has multiple Documents folders, and it's not always clear which one you're viewing unless you check Properties.
Here are all the mods, I've added most of everything today and or yesterday in an attempt to see if removing and then re-adding them will work, hasn't worked yet. Looking and right-clicking on mods to see location it always shows it's in "Sims 4 Mods folder"
@564656465 I need the full file path under Location, AND I need the full path to the folder Sims 4 is reading, according to the game itself. By "full," I mean it should start with C:\Users.
