game crashing after 40-50 mins of gameplay

This has been happening all day today after the update, I have cc and script mods but removed the script mods to see if they were an issue and impacted by the update and still got freezing/crashing. ...

    @wyddmai  Delete the Apple folder or move its contents to the external drive.  It's likely that this backup wasn't removed when you uninstalled the apps, which isn't surprising.  I'd also check the folders within Appdata, which you can access by opening the run box (Windows key-R) and entering %AppData% .  It's not a good idea to delete random folders, but if there are any for apps you know you've deleted, not just moved to D, you can remove those too.

    Still, you're running up against the limits of your very small internal drive here.  Between Windows, the page file, and the appdata entries for apps you actually use, there's never going to be much space left.  The only thing you can do is clear what you can and hope for the best, and also not run any other apps alongside Sims 4.

    I meant to say before, the option to go offline in the EA App is in the dropdown menu in the upper-left corner of the App window.

so, I've been trying this out and so far, the game has been fine with just base game. It's only when I add my mods folder back is when it crashes.
