Game freezes when trying to create an alien

Just tried this, and my game still froze when I tried to create an alien ☹️ Is there anything else I could do?

I'm also having this issue and clearing the cache and repairing the game doesn't work. I've tried with and without mods, but creating an alien, aging up an alien, and giving birth to an alien freezes the game 100% of the time. *Sometimes* being abducted by aliens freezes it too but not always.

Try the following

• Close the game
• Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
• Repair the game
• Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry. 
• Start a new save game
• Check if you still have the error
• Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.

I'm about to try this, but how do I rename that address? When I try, my computer tells me it can't find that file. I'm not very tech-savvy, so I'm likely doing this wrong, lol. Also, are you sure I can still access my save files after I do this? Thank you!

PC!

This unfortunately did not resolve the issue for me. My game still freezes when aliens are involved.

I can get to the files where my saves and mods and things are, but I don’t know how to change the name of the folder😞
