Create a sim - computer crash

Hi,

Everytime I start going into create a sim after around a minute my whole game will just freeze causing my laptop to then also freeze. Any idea on how to help?

  • @MollyKey1  Please move your entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop.  When you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  Don't add anything to it yet; just see whether the game works normally.

    If you get another crash, does your computer run Windows or macOS?  For Windows, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

    For macOS, please list the full specs of your Mac: everything under About This Mac except for the serial number.
