My game is lagging

@swcheppes Please move your entire Sims 4 game folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop. Launch the game, which will create a clean folder with no content. Don't add anything to it yet, just see how the game runs. If it works better than before, the issue is something in your old game folder. It's not likely screenshots, or saves you're not playing, or anything like that; but it could be your current save, or that some of your custom content is now outdated.
If the game still lags in the clean folder, please attach the entire dxdiag to a post. You can upload the whole thing as a .txt file.
I tried what you suggested. The load screens still too extra long and the movement/camera was still laggy. However the sims actions seemed better and not stuck.
I've attached the txt file with the full dxdiag.
Thanks you for your help!
@swcheppes Try playing with no internet connection at all, as in, disable wifi and/or disconnect your laptop from the internet. You can sign into Origin first, put it in offline mode, then take your laptop offline before launching the game.
I tried this. At first it seemed to have worked, but after about 1 sim day it started lagging and the sims actions were once again delayed. I've tried it a few more times, playing other saves and still no difference ☹️
