Can't play with different households

Hello,

I play the Sims 4 on my ASUS TUF gaming laptop. Since the significant patch update before the Lovestruck expansion was released, I have had issues. After updating my mods in late August/ early September, I could finally play, and I took a break. Now, after starting the game, I'm only able to play with my saved household but unable to load and play with other households within the Sims worlds. Any time I go to save and manage worlds and select another household, either in the same world or different, it just ends up on an infinite loading screen, and I have to do a hard restart. I have checked all my mods, done the 50/50 method, and taken all of my mods/cc out and added them one by one. At this point, I'm at a loss for words and unsure what to do. Has anyone else been though this or is currently going through this?
