A Serious Error has occurred while loading {blank}.world

I have ran just about all of the troubleshooting possible. I have no save files, and this is on a fresh install of the game.

    I fixed this by deleting the files both in my harddrive and in my onedrive. something in there was corrupted so i just got rid of it all. 👍this works just rip your saves if you have them

    Edit: here are the file locations 

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Sims 3\Game\Bin <- have this one on my hard drive

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin <- and this one is in my onedrive.

    Im unsure if i really have an antivirus, but i do have windows security. I attempted to pause syncing for onedrive, as it all goes there and it didnt work still. i set an exception for the sims folder on my local hard drive. however im wondering if im running into a different problem. because i do have 2 locations for this game, one being on my hard drive and the other being in onedrive.

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Sims 3\Game\Bin <- i do have this one on my hard drive

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin <- and this one is in my onedrive.

    Another thing i should mention is that this is directly following a crash that happened that forced me to hard shut off my pc. I had alt tabbed out of the game and when i tried to return it black screened and wouldnt come back up so i had to effectively turn off my entire pc just to make it go away.
