Re: sims 4 crashing 2023

I have plenty of free space , like 200 GB or something... but my game keeps freezing and not responding. I just added the newest EP. And it all seems to be random. Game was playing fine until I had infants. I have two infants with a male mermaid sim who I keep inviting to stay over for a week at a time, to help raise them while my main sim works and goes to school. Game has frozen while infants were having tummy time, getting baths, or just sleeping. There's no specific action that is causing the freeze. I try to save and quit but the save never stops saving so I have contol alt delete the game and restart. I have never experienced crashes with Sims 4, but this reminds me a lot of Sims 2 and 3, where the expression save early, save often came to be.
