Sims/Actions getting stuck

It could be, I'm just saying it doesn't seem likely based on what's going on.  I could move past the action freezing by switching the game speed before, then after reinstalling the game it started freezing all sims entirely and changing the game speed doesn't fix it.  Everything else has remained the same.   Origin in-game is disabled.  I tried moving "The Sims 4" folder to the desktop and starting a new save again and was able to play for over an hour without an issue so far.  This time I just went with the default settings, so it definitely seems like one of the settings is causing this.  I'm wondering if it's the accessibility setting since ever since that was released I always move it down to just above the red line so I can see more on the screen.  I'll try changing other settings one at a time to see if that could be the culprit.

I'm pretty convinced it's a resolution issue at this point.  I've left the accessibility setting alone but at one point I changed the screen resolution setting from the default of 2,560x1,600 to 3,360x2,100 and sure enough after about 20-30 minutes the sims froze.  I've since put the resolution back to the default and have modified some gameplay and graphics settings and have been able to play for hours with no issue.
