Create-a-sim Limb and Body Part Resize Stuttering

G'evening, everyone. For the past month, I have run into an issue that has not been the case at all until the last couple of updates and, especially, the update we just received this evening in Origin where as I am in Create-a-Sim in The Sims 4, while trying to resize the limbs and body parts of a Sim, stutter occurs as I do that. There is no stuttering whatsoever as I am rotating the sims or switching between items, though, I do have a bug going on where switching between items and colors of items is IMPOSSIBLE to do at time. I don't know what is causing that and I still have yet to figure out what the cause of that as well. But, my main issue is the stuttering of resizing limbs and body parts of sims. I am, indeed, using custom content, but it's literally all of 18 items of CC and I had this CC for AGES and NOTHING has ever occurred like this before in the past until now with the past two update and it being very prominent right now with the update we JUST received just this evening. 

Whatever the cause is, we need to fix it as I have done all I could on my end to try and repair it to no success. I really do appreciate any help that any of you can offer. 

Thanks, guys!

    Nothing is eternal and this applies to CC also - especially after the patch.
    Move the mods folder to the desktop. Delete localthumbcache.package file in the game folder and fix the game in Origin.
    Origin/Library -right click on TS4 - option "Repair game"
    Check if CAS is working now.
    Turn on the game to create a new mods folder. Then copy from desktop your CC and paste it in the new mods folder every time checking if the game is OK.

    Hey, KReatora!

    Thank you for getting back to me! I'll give this a try right now and hopefully this will straighten out this issue. It most assuredly is a hindrance, I can tell you that. I'll leave you and others and update after everything is said and done.

    Thank you so much, again!

    Well, KReatora,

    Unfortunately, it seems the problem is still persisting and the stuttering is definitely there to stay...at least for now. Until it's fixed, I'll just have to do deal with this. Hopefully, someone else can try a go at this issue. Thank you so much for taking the time to help me, though, I really do appreciate it.♥

    It was only the first easy attempt. Now we will try something else. You will lose nothing.
    Step 1. Rename this The Sims4 folder to "The Sims4 old" /Right click on the game folder - option "rename"
    Step 2. Turn on the game - new game folder will be created and you will have two - one old, one new
    Step.3. Take random sim and start a new game. Check if you still have this problem with CAS in the newly created game folder
    If the problem disappeared
    Step 4. Delete in the new game folder following folders:
    "saves" mods and Tray
    Step 5. Go to "The Sims 4 old" folder and copy your "saves " folder.
    Step 6. Paste this folder to newly created game folder.
    Step 7. Do the same with Tray folder and mods folder
    Step 8. Turn on the game, go to your save/CAS and check if all is OK now
    Step 9. If all is OK - delete The Sims4 old folder. Now you will have only one game folder which is working properly.
