22Gb is needed for what? Are you saying that your Sims 4 folder in the Electronic Arts folder is 22Gb?
How much free space is left on your hard drive?
My sims 4 folder in the Electronic arts folder is currently 22GB. I only have 10 GB of space left on my flash drive, storage is somehow taking up 50GB. My external harddrive has 800+ GB left (It's 1TB) which is why sims 4 is on there.

A 22Gb Sims 4 user data folder is not going to perform well, that's crazy high. Do you have a ton of CC/Mods? If so then maybe one or more is not compatible with the latest version of the game. You need to try a clean game. You can move the folder to your external drive to keep it safe and not lose any of your saves etc. If you don't want to move the whole folder then just move the Mods folder over to see if it is CC causing the issue. Just don't save the game if it loads because none of your CC will be loaded.

No, I don't have any mods or CC installed. I never have before. My sims 4 folder is already on the external hard drive, because there isn't simply any space for sims 4 if it's 22 GB. How do I try a clean game?

I think you're muddling up the Sims 4 folder 🙂
The Documents > Electronic Arts > Sims 4 folder is your user data where your saves etc. are stored. This is the folder I am asking you to move temporarily to see if a new game will launch correctly.
The game is installed in your Applications folder and has the Sims 4 icon. Is that what you are saying is 22Gb?
