Sims 4 keeps crashing and closing unexpectedly

hey everyone! so basically, after the last update, my game keeps crashing. after playing for about 10 minutes (sometimes less, sometimes longer), the game randomly closes and i just get an alert from my computer that says "The Sims 4 Unexpectedly Shut Down".

Sometimes it literally takes 5 minutes before randomly closing.

I do play with mods, but I have checked various times with Better Exceptions and have updated all of them, so I don't think the problem comes from a corrupted mod. Also, other times when I have had a problem with outdated mods, it didn't randomly close, this is completely new.

I have repaired the game, and I'm unsure if maybe it has to do with my computer instead of the game? I have done research about this problem, but nothing seems to work and I don't know what to do anymore. I followed the advice under another post where it said it helped to delete from the last exception files, and so I did, but it keeps crashing.

Of course, this is extremely frustrating because the game simply closes and nothing gets saved, so I have to do everything all over again.

I was hoping anybody could help me. Thanks!

    Honestly I think it's them. I was having the same issue about a week or two weeks ago. I'm not even gonna try and see if mine is working. But I have been having the same issue. I updated all my mods. Completely removed them and still the same thing. So I think it's the sims 4 and EA who need to fix it. Not modders or us. Sorry for the no help, but just wanted to state you aren't alone on this

  • I am having this issue as well! It has been a problem for me for a while, and I genuinely do not know what to do; I have tried vanilla, 50/50, repairing, and fully reinstalling the game to no prevail.
