It pops up, does the opening credits, but when it says "Sims 4" it just never moves from this screen. I JUST had an update, so I'm assuming it was my mods and CC that produced the error. But I can't get into the game to turn CC off. When it freezes, it locks up my whole computer. I can CTRL+ALT+DEL but when I select Task Manager, it won't open. It just changes the screen to a white, blank page. Any suggestions there?

If it does help, then put your mods/CC back into the newly generated mods folder in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing the game after each one to see which is the cause of the problem. Put one item or batch in , test the game , take it out. Then test another one, to find the cause of the issue.
Thank you. I figured that would probably fix it but I was lazy and didn't want to put that much effort into it. I had downloaded about 400 mods since the last time I played the game so I had to sort through all of them. Never found the specific corrupted file, but I removed about 15 mods and it works, so I'm just gonna stick with it. Took about 4 hours to find which batch had the mod in it that needed to be removed, so close enough. Thanks again.
