Ideas
Since the new update, my side bars are acting weird.
I know it isn't the worst thing every, but when I move the cursor over the bar on the right to scroll (I'm on a laptop) I have to click out of the bar, clicking on it doesn't work.
This is a save that has never had any kind of mods.
missbecam That's interesting. Does it help if you resize the game window within windowed mode? If it doesn't help immediately, please restart your computer and test the game again at that resolution, as in, let it load at that size and don't change the size again until you've tested.
I'm also curious whether a clean boot would help. Here's how to do one:
The one service to leave enabled is the EABackgroundService, which the EA App needs in order to run. Disable the rest as described.
When you reboot your computer, go through the Task Manager's background processes list shutting down any service that doesn't absolutely need to be running, for example anything from MSI Afterburner to RGB software might still be enabled. If you accidentally kill a critical process and it doesn't restart on its own, just reboot your computer again.
Don't open anything other than Sims 4 and the EA App while testing, not even a browser window.
If this helps, you can selectively reenable services until you find the culprit, then either leave that disabled or (if it belongs to an app you want to keep using) let me know what it is so we can try to fix the underlying issue.
