I moved the entire folder and there was no lag

    @himchanu  That means that the lag is something in your old Sims 4 folder.  Perhaps it's a mod, perhaps it's your save; the only way to find out is to test.  So please copy your main save to the new Sims 4 folder, but nothing else yet, and see how it runs.  Since you're copying instead of moving the file, you don't need to worry about missing mods or cc—the original save will be intact in the old folder.

    The Sims 4 errors in your dxdiag are somewhat generic, not necessarily mod-related but also not conclusively pointing to a different cause.  There's nothing else obvious that needs to be addressed, which just underlines the theory that the problem is in your old user folder.

    Yeah i thought it would be my mods folder its very large, I had deleted all dupes and what not and cleared cache but when you told me to remove my sims 4 folder, its around 350gb I am just so attached to get rid of unwanted cc and it would be such a hassle but I ended up getting a program to help me clean it up, but after I put my sims folder back in the lag seems to have disappeared (for now)

    I will work without certain mods because my cc isn't a problem as this happened just so randomly

    thanks for helping
