Breakable Objects can't be repaired (endless repairing)

I started a new save and my sim is living in Ravenwood (left side of map). She found a broken microwave in the dumpster and started repairing it because I had her just over level 5 so I thought it'd be "safe".  Only thing she would not finish repairing. Her skill kept increasing all then while and after her needs deteriorated to the point of desperation, I made her stop. It never did get fixed but her skill went up to level 8.  I seem to recall seeing record of this glitch years ago but can't find it, so I'm reporting it again. 
Here's a screenshot of when it happened. (Say Hi, Maci!)

Platform: Win 11 
Mods: none (totally vanilla)
All EPs, GPs, stuff packs, and a few kits

(It turned out to be a great skill hack, and it's not cheating if it's in the game, right... but...lol!)

    I'm not experiencing this but something similar; endless repairing on a fully upgraded, unbreakable toilet after a successful toilet prank. It's very specific and I'm commenting cause I wasn't sure if I should make a separate bug report.

    In the rental apartment I own, there's 2 sims renting there, and as I got contacted for leakage in the shower and bathtub, the shower was instant repaired, but my sim couldn't repair the tub, he just kept doing the repair pose until I stopped it and called for a repair man, but he was also unable to repair it and just keeps doing the repair movements without succeeding. I tried to replace it, but the replacement doesn't happen, I just lose money and the tub remains broken and leaking. I can't remove it either due to its state. Please fix this bug ASAP!

  • I currently have an issue in my game where broken items don't get fixed even when trying to repair them. The progress cirkle progresses until complete - however my sim never stops tinkering and the item still does not work. It has happened with multible items, mainly less common ones like a mini fridge and the climbing wall from fitness stuff. I am playing on a computer with scandinavian origin.
