I have done all this, it still breaks every Monday in Summer at noon.

If I disable the seasons pack everything works fine, so there is something wrong with seasons.

I’ve done everything in every forum that’s been suggested related to time issues and crashing.

The only thing that stops it happening is to disable the Seasons pack but obviously after paying £35 for it I’d like to use it.

Hi&nbsp;@tabju&nbsp;

Try resetting 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 &nbsp;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.

@tabju Do you have a broken save you could share?

tabju · Answer

I do but I’m not sure how to share it? I also have a video of what I mean but again I’m new here and not sure how to add them to a post.&nbsp;
