Since latest update No Mods will load. I will finish with the Sims if not fixed.

I took out the only 2 mods I use (MCCC and one to make vampire weakness optional) before patch ( since I finally did last one figured I may as well get this too even if I haven't been playing) did repair like always, readded my 2 mods rechecked to allow them saved changes logged out even restarted laptop, and neither of mine will even show up as being there either. I even logged into a game ( only have 2 saves anymore on this laptop, mine doesn't work atm) save I had to double check and nope, no MCCC options. Has anyone gotten any mods to show back up in game after this patch yesterday? Sorry about yours, there are too many that are used to fix game issues, I hope mods can still be used its not really so playable, especially if you have all packs, without some if them

I tried this more than once, even took pics of the steps this last time and it is still not allowing mine to enable, and it is still reverting all of my settings back to different than I need them

I read somewhere, I can't remember where...that it could be your security settings. This is difficult to explain, especially since I am not a native english speaker, but if you are on windows, can you right click on the options.ini file, go to properties and then go to the security tab? You should have allow for all the users that are listed there, if you don't then you need to re enable it by going to edit.

Also, make sure that you don't have any files in your configoverride folder.

Apperantly, avast antivirus could be the cause as well, according to crinricts twitter.

Thank you and you do a great job with English btw :smile: I will try this, i actually use Webroot but will try I thank you so much for trying to help me. My gaming laptop has struggled to work and Ive been trying to use my husbands 10 year old Asus but it was playing it and mods any CC if I wanted ( EL disabled for now) and I almost cried thinking after my husband already did a whole reset on mine and I lost all of my work, all my games, that I wasnt gonna be able to at least play on his. Will see if this works, thank you again! You are very nice to try to help me, thank you

My mods are working fine but have you ever considered on moving your mods folder to the desktop before you open origin to update your game then after the update is finished replacing your mods folder back into the Sims 4 folder?

It still will not work on my husbands computer, I dont know what happened because I had been able to play the game (with the exception of EL as I have disabled) until that patch yesterday, really frustrating because I guess now I lose all of those games now since it will not let me keep my settings as I put them. My Omen gaming one (the one that was losing charge tho plugged in and crashing if I tried to play a game) seems to be keeping the Mods and Settings, so I guess its just something I have to figure out with my husbands laptop and find out why his wont, thank you so much for all of your help, it worked on the one, just not the other so thats a computer issue, thank you! Have a great nite!

Yeah went thru a year of doing that before my laptop started having issues, didn't gave any on my husbands until yesterdays patch, thank you

Here is a post that worked from one user on Answer HQ: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/Can-t-activate-my-mods-after-new-update/m-p/9560277#M190494


Repairing the game did not the trick. But I realized that the GameVersion file in my Documents folder were not the same as the real game version.
If you have the same problem, check in Documents>ElectronicArts>TheSims4 et find the GameVersion file. Open it, and see what number is written.
Open you game. Check at the bottom of the home page of your game. If the game versions are different, change the one in the file you opened just before for it to match the one written in your game.
