Hello, I have a problem, almost all the cc's in the game are broken. My game gives an error. How can I fix these broken ccs. More than 650 cc seems to be broken. This situation seemed abnormal to me. Generally, there weren't that many broken cc's. It also gives an error when I open the corrupted cc in sims 4 studio. Pictures : imgur.com/a/i3PFO0U |

Did you update the game without removing the CC first? I think this kinda thing can happen. Think the only course is to redownload everything. Unless someone else knows what that error is really about.

This is so sad :( Thanks for the info. |

I updated my game many times without removing cc because the game is automatically deactivating cc. did you re-enable cc mods in the settings after the update? |

I updated my game many times without removing cc because the game is automatically deactivating cc. did you re-enable cc mods in the settings after the update? Yes, I checked and fixed everything. The real problem is more than 650 cc looks broken. This situation seemed abnormal to me. Overall, there weren't that many broken cc's. Previously, my game was opening with the same cc file. But now it won't open. I verified my game's files on Steam but it didn't fix it. Almost all cc's seem to be broken, but it is not normal to have this much. When I tried to remove all the cc's that looked broken in the pictures, my game opened. The only thing I found strange was that after the update usually 3 or 5 cc were broken, sometimes even not at all. This time, however, the 617 cc's condition looks bad. When I downloaded the cc package file, which seemed to be corrupt, again from the internet and added it, it did not appear to be corrupt. In this case, if I re-download all the corrupted cc's after the update, it will probably be fixed. But 617 cc is really too much. So I'm looking for a way to fix it. |

did you try to repair the game yet by right clicking on your Sims 4 game and choose repair? and another question, are the cc base game compatible or are they pack related because if they are pack related, then it could be that something is wrong with your game files. Are you using the EA APP?
And could you share one of or two those not working cc’s for further investigation?

I'm adding two cc. These are ccler that I know is broken. There are hundreds of cc like this. They all seem to be broken. |

Well, 40 MB with 'ÿ' look really bad. A broken IO controller (HDD and SSD) or malware might cause such issues.
TS4 doesn't write to Mods as far as I can tell so it is hopefully not update-related.

I'm going to delete the entire cc folder and reinstall them all. I have no other choice. Thank you very much for the information. |

Sorry about that, Sims 4 doesn't write mods, but updating the game with mods installed can cause game corruption and generally is not recommended to keep your saves, trays and mods folders in the game folder when you update. Always remove the mods, trays, and saves put them somewhere safe. Clear out anything that is a last exception, or has the word "cache" in it somewhere and load up the game vanilla, save it and then bring in your saves and trays in and then your cc in a little at a time to make sure everyone has updated their mods. I keep back ups on three separate drives, but I'm paranoid. I think as long as you have a back up somewhere that's probably good enough.

I shared the CC file, but I wanted to remove the file because it was said in the comments that it might be a virus etc. So that there is no problem. I decided to delete my entire cc folder. I will say goodbye to 136 gb cc. This is very sad and I don't know where to start right now. |

www.howtogeek.com/134735/check-ssd-or-hdd-health-with-smart/ mentions CrystalDiskInfo to check the disk info / SMART status. If it doesn't show 'Good' you may really want to consider replacing the affected HDD/SSD. I had a broken HDD ast year. It started with a game which needed a repair and downloading around 100 GB again was no fun. The read/access time were random, loading / starting the game took very long or failed. So I used a SMART tool which reported bad and scanning the HDD revealed many places with very slow access times. So running chkdsk and defrag took like 24h and 4-5 weeks later the HDD was finally dead.

The ssd is fine, probably there is a problem with the usb where I stored the cc, I will check it. imgur.com/a/5ihNGEp |

Thanks everyone for their help. I realized that the problem was due to the zip file compressing the cc. Probably because the file is too big or for some other reason it didn't fully compress it. Then he transferred this zip file from usb to pc as corrupted and my ccs were broken.
