What happens if I delete the events.ini file?
The Grim Reaper event stopped working after the first week. If I delete the events.ini file in my sims 4 folder, what will happen?

@MissXEmpress The file holds cached data and will be recreated. Deleting it might be a useful troubleshooting step in general, but it's not related to the login events. The file worth deleting is accountDataDB.package, in the same folder.
Thanks for replying @puzzlezaddict,. I do not know if I deleted that file, but when I deleted the events one, it opened up the other weeks. The only problem I am having is that I can progress through the other weeks and get the rewards but the weeks after the first are not checked off like the first week. Maybe there’s something clashing with these two files? I do not know. But that’s what has happened for me.
@MissXEmpress Have you completed all tasks for a given week? The reason I ask is because usually nothing gets checked off in the rewards panel until all tasks listed under one plumbob have been completed. A couple of screenshots might be helpful.
At this moment, I just realized that I’m getting the rewards but Week 2 is incomplete but I am on Week 3, getting ready to catch fish. But, yes, I completed Week 1, and in an effort to get the other week tasks going I deleted my initial game and restarted with a new game.
I should add, after deleting the ini file, the first week task was deemed complete but the task to get the letter from the mail would not go away. After completing the new tasks for the second week, it resolved itself and the first week tasks were gone. There is no option or opportunity to actually restart the event, so it just continues and revolves itself..
