CAW crash - Attempted to read or write protected memory

So I finally got some motivation to work on a world, but of course, nothing likes to ever work on my computer, and caw isn't an exception. I wasn't sure if i should put this here or in the help center...

Norn at https://nornities.tumblr.com/ has some CAW tutorials, one of which is a PDF file showing where to get the CAW file online. The links below are from that PDF file.

Download CAW from the official Sims Site here: https://www.thesims3.com/game/tools/world.
You'll also find a walkthrough and a tutorial there which give a good overview.
You will see there are two versions: One for patch 1.67 (and earlier, non-Origin), and one for patch
1.69 (Origin) Make sure to download the one that matches the patch level of your game!
Sorry Apple-users, there is no version for Mac...
You need to be registered for downloading. If for some reason you can’t set up an account, here
are the direct links to the downloads:
1.67: lvlt.thesims3.com//content/global/downloads/caw/worldtool.exe
1.69: lvlt.thesims3.com//content/global/downloads/caw/ts3caw.exe

Hope this helps!
