Black screen, only top toolbar, all buttons only have animation and audio

Very urgent, I don’t save often and I have a lot of progress. I’d like to keep. I don’t wanna have to close the app. I am on windows. The little help button in the top shows the pop-up, but then goes away when I press any other buttons after that. I can move the mouse and do what seems like interacting with things behind the dark screen. Super wacky, I can also page up and down on the floors. I tried zooming out to maybe reload the game. I also tried going out and trying to close it from outside the app. To bring up the options page. Nothing.

    Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game in a new save.
    If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.
