Help! My sims game is no longer functional!

I’ve been playing the sims for four years, and all of the sudden my gallery won’t load, I can’t make any new sims or have new households, and it is randomly freezing and crashing. I can still play old saves, but I can’t make any new ones at all. I don’t know what the issue could possibly be. I’ve tried to clear the local thumbcache package multiple times, and repair the game, but the issue keeps persisting. I don’t use mods at all either, so I don’t think it could be any issue there. If it is helpful information, I play on a windows Lenovo computer, and only open the sims through the EA app.
It’s making it impossible for me to do anything! Is anyone else having this bug? Please help!

  • I use the default windows defender. When I go into CAS to make a new sim, I can still use all the features, but when I go to play the household, it gets stuck on the "saving to library" window, and usually crashes soon after. I can't figure out why it's doing that, but the gallery and library also aren't loading or working either.

  • Hi kxqlpl0xohkd​ 

    what happens when you try to make a new Sims the game crashes ? 

    What security software are you using ? Windows defender ?
