    @Cathedraal  As a test, please try playing in a clean user folder.  Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, if it launches, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you moved but temporarily not read by the game.)  Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just let me know whether you can get far enough to start a new save and play in live mode for a bit.

@puzzlezaddict I did what you told me and everything seems to be working fine! I was able to add and remove households and lots easily 🙂
With this, could I be able to put my Mods back?

@Cathedraal  You can add back your mods, sure, but you'll need to run some tests to find the ones that aren't working.  You can simply update the ones that are known to be broken:

And you can test the others in small batches, or else use the 50/50 method if you have quite a lot to go through:
