Ok one more probably stupid question... Before I moved her out, I was not asked who in the household I wanted to play, but now when I go back to original house without her, it does... Is this normal to now be asking me?

It is normal for that to occur. One of the sims in the household may not be on the lot at that particular time. You can choose who you want to play from the household.

Move the current sims 4 folder to your desktop. Start the game, and a new fresh Sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game. You won't have any of your save games, or old mods/cc or any of the households or builds that you saved to your library, because you deleted them.
You can download and install new cc though as well as installing mods.
Go to game options in-game and tick the " enable custom content and mods" button which is found in :
Options | Other | Enable Custom Content and Mods. Also tick the script mods allowed button.
Exit the game. Then go back into the game again and see if the cc appears then.

Does the sims 4 folder have your saved games in it now? If it does, does the mods folder contain your cc that you had before you had these issues?

ok so basically to make things clear i had the sims 4 game and there was a sims 4 folder in documents. then it stopped working because of some origin problem. so i uninstalled it and i also deleted the sims 4 folder in documents as well. then i reinstalled it again and the sims 4 and i started playing it, and when i launched the game after i reinstalled it, it didnt re generate the sims 4 folder. so i logged into another account on my pc, who hasnt played the sims 4 but has the folder, and i copied and pasted it into my ea folder in documents. now when i did what u said to put it in my desktop it didnt regenerate a new one. so i dont know what to do. and i also dont understand the answer to ur question: Hello

Place the sims 4 folder that is on your desktop back into documents. You will then be able to play the game.

Is there a back up copy of the Sims 4 folder in One Drive? The game may be using that folder instead. Try checking to see if there is a sims 4 folder there.
Also,go to game options in-game and check that the " enable custom content and mods" button is ticked, which is found in :
Options | Other | Enable Custom Content and Mods. If it isn't ticked, do that.Also check that the script mods allowed button is ticked as well. Exit the game.
I think though the game isn't using the sims 4 folder that you copied/pasted from the other account, so it isn't recognising the cc that you have put in the mods folder.
It would be good to see if there is a sims 4 folder in One Drive or any other place that you have backups of your computer files such as google drive.

Hi! So I've been having a problem with my game crashing since around November. It all happened after I installed the City Living EP. I have always used custom content in my game with no problems. But now, after installing City Living, any time I try to play the game with CC in my Mods folder, it crashes and says "The Sims 4 has stopped working" about 10 minutes into gameplay. It usually happens at random times. Sometimes when in CAS, sometimes when trying to save, sometimes when trying to travel, etc. I feel like I've tried everything. It seems to play fine without CC, but I would really like to find a solution to be able to use CC. I've tried renaming the Sims folder to backup so it will regenerate a new folder when I launch the game, but it didn't work. I've tried just about everything I could find online. Any help?

Hello @purplerain730
Your cc/mods have been broken due to the latest game patches or the ep.
Move your mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and a new mods folder will be generated. Exit the game. Then put your mods/CC back into the newly generated mods folder in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing the game after each one to see which is the cause of the problem. Put one item or batch in , test the game , take it out. Then test another one, to find the cause of the issue.
You will then be able to remove the cc /mod causing the issues, and keep the rest of your cc/mods.
Then check on the cc/mods download site to see if an updated version has been released.

i can play the save game that i played before i had the issue and deleted the Sims 4 folder
Go to the sims 4 folder that is in My Documents ( I think that you put it back there? )Go to the saves folder and see if there are save files there that are the same date/time that you last played the game, when you played either today or yesterday.

Hello
You need to upload your screenshot to a photo sharing site such as imgur or tinypic,because we are unable to see photos that are on the computer of other simmers. Upload the picture to imgur, tiny pic or photo bucket, then right click the picture on the photo sharing site and copy/paste the image address link here, but break the image code link up, such as putting h.tt.p.
We can then put the codes back together and post the picture for you.
i just discovered a new bug, at least for me. My ghost (dead in sauna) don't have the option to absorb the puddles of water from the floor anymore. No cc or mod installed.
Anyone have the same problem?

Hello @costa09
Try having your ghost sim travel to another lot and then back home again. Then test to see if that helps the issue.
Come completely out of the game. Then go back in again and see if the issue remains.
If the issue still remains, repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.
If the issue continues, try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" or " options " file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders from the desktop sims 4 folder
Comments
It is normal for that to occur. One of the sims in the household may not be on the lot at that particular time. You can choose who you want to play from the household.
