Very interesting and good to know you did not have to delete the whole thing and start over. I suppose you already know in the future to be wary of whatever you put in there. Modders test their work with the game and some of the larger mods, but I doubt they have the time to check their work with every mod or CC out there and/or all possible combinations therefrom. A "larger" CC file means you probably missed something the first time 'round.
Some unsolicited geek advice: If not already done, you should consider a disk image backup of your entire system. This preserves everything on your HDD/SSD. Those are usually used when cloning a hard drive but have other useful attributes. Update it regularly and if anything like this happens anywhere in the system not just this game you can roll back the entire machine to where it was, preferably when it ran well, and you can go from there will less fuss and frustration and detective work which wastes a whole lot of time as you now know..
I do disk image backups all the time as a solution to really bad malware such as ransomware. If one of their bugs should get into my system I simply zap the whole disk and restore an earlier image. All gone ransom ware all gone encryptions.. and the best part, No Bit coin For Them!
And I mean disk image not the standard "backup" that comes with Windows. Saved to an external drive and offline, it is untouchable. "Backup" saves files and settings but not programs. A much more cumbersome proposition.
