Try this exact set of steps, please: 

  1. Drag your whole Sims 4 folder from Document > Electronic Arts to your desktop and rename it.
  2. Run a Game Repair in the EA App. (If you use Steam, the equivalent is Verify Integrity.)
  3. Launch Sims 4. You should get no list of mods on launch, and you should have no option to load a previous save. Reset your Options.
  4. Exit, then download a recent piece of CC from an established creator. (I usually pick a peacemaker furniture item for this.)
  5. Install that in your newly created Mods folder and test again.

I run my sims 4 folder through a usb by a symlink. It has worked before to run it like that with mods just not lately. Like I mentioned I can run the game just not with any mods at all so I don't think the symlink itself is broken.
