Sims Character Not Moving At All

After the new update, it seems like my Sims are stuck. It's like they're dead. They won't move or do anything at all unless I have them do something. For example, after I have my sim repair a broken furniture, they would just stand there for the whole day doing nothing. And when my Sims come back from school or work, they would just stand outside the house and wouldn't come in or do anything at all. Usually, they would walk around or do random activities on their own, and would usually go inside the house themselves after school or work, but they can't anymore. They can't sleep, eat, shower, or even walk around, talk to each other, technically any activities on their own, I would have to force them do it essentially. It's like they're stuck or dead inside. 

I checked for broken mods, and I have removed the broken ones, but it's still the same after I remove them. And usually when I have broken mods, my Sims wouldn't act up, it's usually the UI that becomes weird. I don't know whether anyone else has this problem, but this is one of the major bugs that I've noticed and has never happened to me before. Please fix ASAP, there are so many bugs because of the new update 😭.

  • Did you make sure autonomy is turned on for your Sims in the settings ?

    If so. try the following

    - Close the game
    - Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
    - Repair the game
    - Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry. 
    - Start a new save game
    - Check if you still have the error
    - Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.
