loading sims icon in cas

Whenever I create a sim and a necklace was either automatically put onto them (since you start off with a random sim) or I accidentally add it onto them, the icon of the sim in the bottom left corner starts to load and doesn't show my sim changing for the time being. You must be saying to get rid of my cc and put each one back one by one (which btw, time consuming as hell), but that isn't what's making my sims load like that, it's the necklaces. I've been noticing this ever since I got new cc necklaces (which are now all deleted) and I only thought the cause of this loading madness was the cc, but until today I find out it's also because of the necklaces the game provides for us. The necklace was randomly put on my sim, I didn't put it on. I really need to know why this is only happening to the necklaces and how can I fix this problem because I'd love to start having my sims wear necklaces again freely without me pulling my hair out every time it starts to load. Thank you.

    Removing this CC wasn't enough.
    Move the mods folder to the desktop.
    Delete localthumbcache.package file in the game folder - important!
    Fix the game in Origin.
    Origin/Library -right click on TS4 - option "Repair game"
    You have to wait until Origin will fix all packs, not only the base game.
    Turn on the game to create a new, empty mods folder and to check if a game is working now without mods and CC.
    Check if there are new updated versions of the mods and CC you are using.
    Then copy from desktop your mods and CC and paste it in the new mods folder. First, paste script mods one by one every time checking if the game is OK. Do the same with CC but if you have a lot of this, try the 50/50 method. ( divide your CC into smaller batches for example 50 pieces in one subfolder and check these subfolders one by one)
