My sims can't water their plants.

Every time I try to get my sim to water any plant in any plant (Inside, Outside, in a pot or in the ground.) It won't work. I click on the plant and try to use every option possible. Water plant, Water all, Tend garden but my sim walks up to it and does nothing. The game just drops the action from the que and the plant remains not watered. I tried to hire a gardener and a butler but they also can't water it. Either way I paid for this game and I should be able to just play it the way it is intended. I looked at similar posts but did not find a solution or anyone with the same exact watering problem.

I am using pc. When the problem first started I didn't have mods but I added one after to try and fix it but it doesn't work so well. I have tried to Repair and Uninstall and Reinstall. I have other problems too like my island living pack won't let me fish from the signs and when it rains it looks like it is raining inside the house even though it's not. I will probably have to make a separate post for those but this entire game is becoming unplayable. 😭
