    I found the issue!  It turned out not to be my CC itself, but the optional pop-up window that lists my CC and mods.  I usually keep it engaged to make sure my CC is active in case I miss that there was an update (#adhd). 

    What was happening was that the CC pop-up and the ad pop-up were starting at the same time, and the game essentially couldn't figure out what to do.  By the previous suggestion, I did find that the game worked when all CC was removed.

    I solved the issue by:

    • Removing all but 1 item of CC from my Mod folder (Documents> Electronic Arts> The Sims 4 > Mods)
    • Starting the game
    • Exit ad pop-up
    • Uncheck "show at startup" for my CC pop-up
    • Save changes
    • Exit game
    • Move CC back into folder (Documents> Electronic Arts> The Sims 4 > Mods)
    • Start as normal

    With only a single item in my Mod folder, I was able to exit the ad pop-up, but still get to the CC pop-up.

    I hope this helps if anyone else has a similar issue!
