Game crashes or freezes in build mode since March 2025 update.

My game started crashing while I’m in build mode after the latest update.  I don’t use mods or CC. I started a new save file and now it freezes while in build mode and will crash in the live gameplay...

MN_Girl_75  Please force the game to run in DirectX 11 mode.  Open the EA App, click Sims 4 > Manage > View properties, and add -dx11 to the command line box.

If this doesn't help, I'd need to see the entire dxdiag, saved as a text file, not just this photo of the first page of information.

I have tried without -dx11 and with and it still crashes while in build mode in my save. It doesn't seem to affect any new saves only my ones before B&H. 😭

This is my text file of the most current crash. Please help!
