Hey, I know you made this post over a year ago and it honestly did help. I was able to launch the game when before It would close shortly after the initial intro. What would the next steps be?
@EllieBee242 The next step is transferring your saves and other content to the new Sims 4 folder. Start with your mods and custom content, and if the game stops working, test those files to find the problem. The 50/50 method can make the process much more efficient:

Once you've done that, and the game is working with whatever mods and cc you want to use, add back your saves and Tray files, plus Screenshots and Recorded Videos if you care about those. The rest can be discarded.
@PianoMan565 Did you try the clean folder, and are you able to play without a crash? If so, please see the above. If not, please post a dxdiag.

Ive done all the steps from post 2 and have followed up until this point but my sims game isnt loading the mods i put into the folder. ive don't it from the normal pathway but it seems like its in a completely different folder altogether because even when i remove the mods they still pop up in the mods list.
@CANDYSAMMIE It sounds like you might not be working with the Sims 4 folder the game is actually reading. Here's how to find it:

If you are using the correct folder, please list the full path, as shown in-game and described in the guide above.
