Some problems in the game.

Hello,
I have noticed problems that are occurring in The Sims 4, I do not know if it is happening with other people, but with me these problems listed are occurring in the game.
- Children and teenagers wanting to wash dishes at all times, and does not have any dirty dishes to wash. (I think this problem is happening in relation to the character creation and education values of the parenthood game package).
- Eyelashes or makeup of the eyes of the women sims being cut when taking a photo with the camera or with the cell phone. (I already posted about this bug here on the forúm, but this problem is bothering me a lot, because I can not take the photos of my sims because of this annoying problem.) http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/929044/sims-eyelashes-women-with-problems-when-they-take-photos#latest
- Sims delaying to cancel actions performed, for example I send a yes to eat, only then I cancel this action and I do not want more than this yes eat, only then when I cancel this interaction the sims delay to cancel too and end up going eat with the interaction canceled. It seems like the Sims are not respecting the commands of the interactions.
- Cats and Dogs with very rapid drop in needs, especially in the part of play or affections of the animals. (I have noticed that after some time of having paid attention to them the needs dropped a little.
- Cats and Dogs are also not willing to do their own thing alone, especially to eat or even sleep. (Every time the game keeps notifying me that this animal is hungry, there is a ration in the bowl for the animals to eat and there is nothing to get in the way so they can reach the feed bowl).
- Objects with bugs in the inventory, for example I realized this problem in those days playing with a sim child. I went into the worlds manager to put a new family in the game and when I came back she was writing in her diary, except that I canceled the action that ended up with the diary being bugged in the inventory, from that moment I was not able to withdraw or exclude the journal from your inventory. I had to go back to my previous save so that the diary did not remain bogged down in my yes inventory. (This problem I also posted on the forum - http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/930587/bug-in-the-sims-inventory#latest).
- I have already repaired my game several times and also started new save to see if problems are gone, but these still continue. I do not use mods in my game.
- I hope producers are aware of these problems. @SimGuruNick @SimGuruArvin

The issue with sims wanting to wash dishes is posted in this AHQ EA thread

With the third issue, this thread refers to the issue

With the other issues, try deleting the cache files and see if that helps

I think certain interactions are designed to complete without interference which is problematic when you have a lag in Sims' queues.
I think it has got better over time as issues have been identified, but it is still something that is probably going to manifest for everyone at some time or other.
When it does manifest badly then, ideally, save and quit and then start up TS4 and load your save. Other than that, you can try to identify the Sim that is causing the lag - TS4 doesn't have a global ResetSim (at least it didn't), so you would have to literally do Sims one at a time to see which one is causing the lag in the simulation.
Parties/group gatherings were more likely to manifest this problem.
Hello
Do you use One Drive? If you do it could be causing this issue, Try seeing if there is a sims 4 folder or saves folder in One Drive . The game may be using that saves folder instead of the correct sims 4-saves folder on your D Drive.. One Drive can cause issues, It would be best to unsync One Drive and Sims 4.
If you don’t use One Drive, try using the search bar on your computer , and search to see if there may be another saves folder on your computer that the game is using instead of the one directly in the sims 4 folder that is on your D Drive..
This link article explains about One Drive in the first suggstion in the article

Checked and am not using One Drive, but your post gave me an idea. I began a test game in Sims 3, saved it with a distinctive name, and then searched for it - found it in the saves folder on the SSD, rather than the HDD which is where the game was saving before. I copied the saves to SSD - all is well now with Sims 4 but with Sims 3, I found that all my 'Installed Worlds' were missing. Copied these over to SSD too and can now open saves, but my custom content is also gone (there's a lot of it)! I've tried copying over what files I think these are, but still no joy. I can download it all again, but what a pain...
Sims 3 loads and runs like a dream from SSD, which was my aim (no need for mods simply to make it playable - yippee) but have now totally confused myself. As it's a new PC, I've been re-downloading/installing lots of stuff and changing settings to specify where content should be saved. Think I must have done this in between Sims sessions and that is what has caused the issues.
Can anyone give me chapter and verse on working with 2 drives, as it relates to the Sims, as I'm (very obviously!) new to having an SSD as well as a HDD. Thanks in advance.
Hello @Tracypp
It would be best to post your questions on this link thread in the Sims 3 Tech section where simmers who are new members are able to post , as they can't start new threads,
https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/893122/thread-for-new-members-to-post-their-sims-3-game-issues#latest
They will offer advice about having a ssd and hdd.
