Simulating an I2C 16x2 LCD in Proteus involves two distinct parts: adding the Proteus component library (the visual model) and including the Arduino/firmware library (the code). Proteus Visual Libraries

If you try to design a circuit with the built-in LCD, you have to wire all the data pins. If your actual hardware code uses the LiquidCrystal_I2C library (common in Arduino projects), the simulation will fail because the simulation model expects parallel data, not I2C communication.

When you download the library files provided in this guide, you gain access to several features that enhance your simulation experience:

Restart Proteus to see the new components in the search section. 2. Required Simulation Components

You specifically need three files for the I2C LCD to work:
