I tried to load my Sims 4 today and it won't load with cc installed. If I move all my cc and houses to a folder on my desktop then it will start. Otherwise it just won't load. I click play on the ea app. The app goes away and it acts like its going to start but then the app comes back and that is it. I am not very computer literate so be gentle with me when you offer advice. LOL Thanks in advance.
@juliedawn1970 Here are resources to get you started on how to manage when your mods/CC don't work:
How to Use Mods and CC has general instruction sets, including how to narrow down causes (without testing one by one), which in Sims support we call 50-50 testing. (Click that link for instructions.) It also has information on how game updates affect mods/CC and how to manage at update time. The what not to download for Sims 4 part can be relevant! Sometimes people's problem is they left a zip or rar folder in their Mods folder, or they added Sims 3 CC.
Pinned in this forum, there's always a Broken/Updated Mods & CC post. This restarts at most game updates, and I update it almost every day. Part of it is a list of older broken mods/CC that don't have updates. The rest is for things broken or updated since the current patch. Not everything is listed here -- for example, mods that change the game rating (18+ mods) or that otherwise don't follow the rules EA sets for creators.
I also keep a Mod/CC Issues master post . This includes lists of symptoms you might have plus common causes. That won't help you a lot for this issue, but it's worth knowing about in the future.
