[AA] Sims unable to go to work/school due to scheduling issue

Jan 4 2026 Testing: opened a New Game & New Sim.  Placed her in a house and gave her a job.  The timing countdown worked as it should and she went to work.  Did not see a Go To Work button in the Career tab.  

Left the New Game and opened my Legacy Game where the go to work/school glitch is happening.  

1. Gave the child an after school activity.  She will go to Drama Club on time but will not go to school.  The school countdown is frozen on 2 days and it's Wednesday in game.
2. Sent the child to Camp Gibbi, again. This time it worked. Camp activities and camp's time schedule normal.  Returned home and the school countdown is still frozen. 
3. Parent's career countdown is frozen on 4 days.  She hasn't been to work since the glitch started. 

Not sure what to do. The child will age up in 3 days. If she can't go to High School rabbit hole (I don't have the High School pack) it messes up her stats and her mother's aspiration to have an A student.  

Guess I could clear cache files manually and reverify the files again.  

Update Jan 9 2026
On Jan 6 or 7 Aged up child to teen hoping it would reset the school "clock".  It didn't. 
THEN on Jan 9 I noticed the countdown for school started again!  I stayed on the lot until she autonomously went to school.  YAY
Still broken - adults not going to work. Their countdown is still frozen on 3 or 4 days. The boss doesn't call. They are still employed.  I had one sim quit her job that was frozen.  Next will have her get a new job and see if the countdown works.
