Since installing the patch I have been having random crashes. The application error I get is:

I thought this was a DEP crash so I redid my DEP settings by adding all the Sims 3 executables. I removed the cache files also. I am still getting random crashes. I have now moved the entire Sims 3 folder as ceejay402 suggested. If it no longer crashes, what should I do next? If I add the Sims 3 folder back, won't that just recreate the crashes?
I may just try reinstalling everything too. If I do that is it best to install The Sims 3 and all the expansions then patch, or should I patch after each one?
hi Simlarr, if moving the sims 3 doc folder works. just move the saved material back to the new files.
UPDATE for more help on which files see here
