I recently got a new computer and moved all my stuff onto there. I transferred my old save files. For some of the files, I get an error message when trying to load the lot (see attached). Sometimes it just crashes when loading into households. I've tried on multiple saves. I don't have any mods/cc installed. I've tried repairing. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game. I've tried removing the saves and repairing. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. At this point, Sims 4 is unplayable.

Hi @jsophiak. Since you were moving content between computers, try recreating your Sims 4 folder fresh. Drag the whole Sims 4 folder out of Electronic Arts to your desktop. Start the game, and set up Options how you like. Then move only individual save files into the newly created Saves folder and test.
If you're still having issues, there's a chance you have a corrupted lot/household. Sometimes this is a result of outdated mods. It can also be a result of removing a mod - this is mostly the case for cooking mods, some of which require that you delete plates and food first. For those, you can add the mod back in unless it's broken in other ways.
