HELP!! No control bar

[lydynred]

I hope that someone here can help? When i created new sims and move them into a house, i do not have a control bar. I am unable to buy clothes, use build mode, nor can i see a control bar. When the screen first pops up, my sims are stuck on what looks like pause.  Non of the keyboard functions work and i have to use my task manager to exit the game.

I am not very good when it come too figuring out problems like this and it is way over my head. Can someone give me some type of insight as to what the problem may be and how i can solve it.

Your my only hope  :worship:

Try pressing F10.  That key toggles the control bar on and off.
