I am stuck at level 4, Flirting with Death. My Sim actually WooHoo'd with the Grim Reaper and I still can't move on. The tasks for level 5 show, but I can't get past level 4. I'm not as skilled as others and have no idea how to go in and delete files (although I have been playing since February 4, 2000 when The Sims was first released). Is there a simple fix?

Sul Sul, Simmers!
I just finished the last week of reapers rewards! It was a really fun event i do really expect more like this!

When I launched my Reaper Rewards household today my Sims had bills to pay, so I clicked on the mailbox to pay them. Almost at the same moment the new week of Reaper Rewards popped up in the top left of my screen. When my sim was done paying the bills the quest went from wait for the letter to read the letter, but there's no letter to read in any of the household's inventories.
Also, the 2 teenagers who were in school appeared at the edge of my lot at the same time the quest clicked over from wait to read, but were still greyed out in on the bottom left and if I moused over them it said they were still in school. I tried resetting object on them and it made them ditch school and didn't give me the option to send them to class. A little few IRL minutes later I opened CAS while the mom was at work and when I came out of it she was back on the edge of the lot and greyed out like the teens had been.
So, two issues, but clearly related. I'm running Sims 4 with all of the expansions but no mod on a pretty beefy Win 11 PC that's fully patched.

I was able to complete Week 4 (running The Sims 4 on PC without any mods) and was able to complete the first group of tasks for Week 5 but not the second Week 5 tasks group.

I can not complete the week 4 quest as the game does not accept that I have the death flower, so I can not go any further with the quests.
I have tried repearing the game, started a completely fresh new game, but it won´t restart the quests so not an option.
What should I do ?

@CreatorSS97 I have questions about what happens even if I delete that file and make new Sims, my Sims had a Death Flower, an angelfish and a pomegranate, and their greenhouse had snapdragon/lily/Orchid (no orchid yet) flowers. One of them had a Death Flower I was going to have her plant it but I waited in case that wouldn't count for a future quest. I'm not likely to find a Death Flower in a shop again, or the angel fish at the Potion Shop. I'm not wasting another 2 weeks finding that God forsaken fish. My two Sims fished everywhere I was told to fish and had fishing levels 9 and 10. I would have DM'ed you, but I must have hit the spoiler button because everything was blacked out and when I tried to remove the blackout, I hit the Spoiler button again which made it worse.
So I have to rescue my Sims because they have every ingredient, except the Potion of Youth which they both had enough points for but I was waiting until it was officially a quest task - so beyond my attachment to them, I need them because they had all of the necessary ingredients. There is no way I'd have time to get all of the ingredients again. like I said to the EA.(people, who have EA in their screenname) why have an event for ambrosia when you can get it off the Gallery? And everyone does it and they know that.
Just like photos were the fastest way to make another Sim like your Sim and it took 8 years for them to nerf it. It took them 10 years before they cared to put skill books in every library. The hot tub gift, a hot tub, that's how they thank players for being loyal to the franchise?!
We should have seen this coming...they said this would be fun.
I seriously did not know that I had tutorial quests active, because I had dismissed Emily, the tutorial Sim in the beginning of the save), it was also a want which is the only reason I went to the library I wish I made machinima, it's the perfect true crime. "2 Young Adult went to the library in Willow Creek, Sim City (Throwback, thank you Will Wright, we love you) and they were never seen again." I'm a college trained filmmaker, if I can find a producer, I could get a live action version of this Greenlit. If I never find my Sims again, at least I have an idea. In case any EA people care to actually read this: These Sims had everything they might need to finish the event and did not get to do it. I know I gave links to my save files in an earlier post but I wish they would look at them because they are eating a whole through my Google Drive storage.
Save files:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L7rQn9gnKsa356ptH0FmsXo38adHUMNT/view?usp=drive_link - Main Save - Slot 8
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1y_qT5cJBAZv98nyZ966du1HnRq7X1XRo/view?usp=drive_link - Save with issue Isolated - Slot 3
Disclaimer: I do not and will not use One Drive. It's not for uploading and downloading files, it is merely a mirror of the files on your PC and if you delete a file in One Drive you are actually deleting it from your PC. Even if it is told to stop backup of certain folders and you exit it, it is still alive via the Quick Access folders in File Explorer. Therefore, it is best to remove all files from the Quick Access folders and put them in a new folder under This PC, uninstall OneDrive and delete your Quick Access folders because it will still try to access and take possession of your Documents folder and because of that, your Sims folders are in jeopardy. Please note that I am still on Windows 10 because some of the programs I need/use don't play well with 11. So your folder structure may be different. DM me if you'd like more info on why OneDrive is a pain that Simmers should avoid and how to kill OneDrive for good, because I found out the hard way.

@Trentbaby96303 I am truly glad that the worked for you! However, this thread is for people like myself who had nothing but problems with the event and are truly displeased and want EA held accountable for all of the issues because we are missing out on the rewards. If they are going to have events like this in the future, they need a lot more planning and playtesting before they invite us to do things like this again. All of this could and should have been done by SDX drop and a friendly message. Now, people are missing rewards and Sims and Save Files have been interrupted or corrupted. I don't know if you have been following the thread. Messages about completing the event might make people feel bitter and angry. Many people, myself included, are reconsidering buying the Life & Death pack because of the problems with the event. People that might have been excited about helping Grim, are now saying, "Who cares?" If EA cared they would have done it by SDX Drop because this is exactly what it was designed for - dropping content on the fly! If the event ends and people didn't get rewards and are mad or sad or both, they could say something like, we know everyone did not get the rewards due to technical difficulties but we know that Grim would want you to have them! Many people might be happy and thankful and it would make them feel excited for the new pack. but shelling out $40 USD for a pack after missing rewards is too much for some people. I live in my own place but I'm not well off so I had to ask my Mom for the money. I'd like to give my Mom her money back and invite her out to lunch or something. $40 USD would buy my niece a nice gift for the holidays or I could add it to her college fund. Even though I love this franchise, it will never surpass how much I love her. I think the failure of this event has caused a lot of Simmers to give up playing for a little while or permanently. I think some of us, including myself feel our money is misspent. I thought the money I spent was being used to develop Sims 5 aka Project Renee. Now where is it going? $40 might be the amount a developer works per hour. What does that developer do for that hour? I don't honestly know but it feels like they use only 5 minutes to think of the players and fix bugs. Let's look at some facts:
I don't think you meant any harm and I don't mean to come down hard on you, it just comes down to wrong place wrong time so just be aware of what thread you are posting to. We are upset due to one weird mechanic in life: FOMO, Fear of Missing Out. We missed out on rewards due to a buggy event that leads up to taking $40 of someone's hard earned money, in this case, my Mom's and that makes me among others upset. I spent my birthday money on High School Years's Pre-order and if you don't pre-order you miss out on more items. I should know better as I took Advertising in college. I let my love of this game cloud my good judgement.
Let me just say again that I am really happy for you as you are one of the first people I have seen or talked to that has finished it, so congratulations!
