The first thing you can do is update your mods in The Sims 4 because these files often cause corruption within your game when it doesn’t have the latest version. Additionally, you should back up your saves just in case something goes wrong.

If you are tired of consistently updating these mods, you can find one that automatically does this for you or add on an application that also features this.

Another option you can do is to repair the game within the Origins store. To do this, you must go into your ‘My Game Library’ and right-click on The Sims 4, where the ‘repair’ option will be.

Once everything loads up, check the boxes ‘Enable Custom Content and Mods’ and the ‘Script Mods Allowed’ in the Options menu, which requires you to close and re-open the game (if you have mods on The Sims 4.)
