Where do I install the Sims 4
Okay so I couldn't save my sims game anymore because there wasn't enough space on my drive. I looked into it and apparently I installed my sims game on my school's one drive (i don't go to school anymore so if anyone knows how to uninstall that please let me know too). But anyway i uninstalled my sims game to re-install it on a different location on my PC. The game started up just fine. Now when i wanted to add all my CC it didn't work, it also looked different then i'm used too. Now i tried different location ect but it still looks like that. (see picture below). Can someone please help me out on what i'm doing wrong, and how to fix it.Sims won’t clean up dishes and will only do one item if told to do so
Recently my sims have stopped clearing away plates and glasses autonomously. If I click on a plate or glass and click ‘clean up’ they will clean up only that single item, they have stopped gathering all of the dishes to clean up in one go. Even when I hire a maid they don’t gather up and clean the dishes. This means there’s constantly smelly dishes all over the house, unless I individually clean up every single one.

My Sims 4 will say it’s running and then not show up, even in the task manager. It will sometimes launch to a white screen but will never load. I’ve uninstalled the EA app and removed all Sims4 files, including old mods. I’ve redownloaded EA and the Sims 4. I’ve connected my Steam and EA and tried to launch through Steam. I’ve tried removing the cache as suggested online and nothing is working. I’ve downloaded the Sims 4 files to different locations. Does anyone have any suggestions?CAS UI MISSING
When I play the sims 4, specific sims' in cas will only include the main menu buttons which don't work, the sim, and the background, I have no clue which mod may be causing this issue and the 50 50 method takes forever to do.

So this is a pretty weird one. I recently moved my sims into a bigger lot. They had their mini sheep before the move, so he was put in the inventory when they moved house. Somehow, the sheep got saved in both my household inventory and my sim's inventory at the same time. I placed him down from the household inventory, but I got a notification that he was still in my sim's inventory. That actually placed a copy of the same sheep down. I destroyed one of the sheep with a debug cheat, but now I have a new problem. Apparently I no longer have the option to care for him? Like, the option is just straight up gone. I can't shear him either. I bought a goat while on the property, and all of his options show up fine. I'll probably just end up destroying the sheep and getting a new one, but I wanted to document this in case it ever comes up again.

I looked through the compiled list of bugs and didnt see this on there, so if i missed it and it's on there, oops! Anyway, I'm so tired of having to delete every single computer in the house simply because it's allll my sims want to do. It's the same issue with having a bar on the lot. I know that was "fixed" in an update a while ago at this point but it's STILL an issue for me, it never stopped being an issue. My main issue is the computers, but the bars is also still an issue, my sims make themselves alcoholics.

Hello everyone. I've had this happening in my game for a while and I've finally decided to ask if people had any idea what might be causing it. I've attached images, hopefully you can see what I'm talking about. There's an area in the exact shape of my Sim that seems to create an "outline," primarily around the shoulder area, where it's much sharper than the rest of the background. I've also included edits of the screenshots where I've drawn over the outlines. This has been happening for over a year despite my game settings being on ultra settings/the highest possible. I've tried searching Google for this and haven't found anything that might solve it. I've also tried it with no mods/cc (clean mods folder), and the issue persists, just to a lesser extent. In addition, I've tried repairing my game. I just figured I'd see if anyone knew what was going/has also encountered this, and how I could fix it. Thank you.Mod folder breaks every time I play
My mods always prevent my sims game from launching after an update, which is fine I just have to go through and find the broken one. But this time there hasn't been an update and just randomly when I tried to launch the game every single mod/cc stopped the game from launching and the only thing that fixes it is making a new mods folder and copy and pasting everything into it. I don't wanna do that every time though, because I have so many mods and it takes forever to copy and paste.Solved
