Re: Sims 4 stuck on household loading screen

At the moment you don't know if the game itself or the user data is causing the problem. If you follow this link reset TS4 game this can tell you if the game is corrupt or if the user data is causing the problem. How much free space is on your system drive? Insufficient free space can cause a problem if the game is trying to write temp files. If you back up your user data you can copy the data back but if that is what is causing the problem and you don't want to loose the data you'll have to figure out the specific item and correct that.

    I used the link and followed the instructions to reset the game and it worked! It turns out the problem was my user data because when I opened up the new game without saves it was working perfectly.

    **BUT--- when I was trying to replace it with old saves it stopped working. I think the problem is just my saves because my old house and sims showed up when I replaced the file 'tray'. 

    I'm not sure how I should do this.. remove the saves one by one and see if it works or should I start from the bottom and work my way up? 

    Thank you! The first part was a huge help!

    I am having the same problem. How did you find which save was s causing the problem ? I really don’t want to lose all of my data.
