@lianelianeliane Please move your entire Sims 4 game folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop. When you launch the game, a clean folder will be created with no content. Don't add anything to this folder; just start a new save and see how it runs. Let me know whether you still get crashes, and how long you can play.
If you do get more crashes with the clean folder, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

Great! Now all of my Sim 4 worlds have been erased.
@lianelianeliane Your worlds aren't erased—the save files are still intact in the folder you moved. You can transfer your saves back later, once you get the crashing under control. For now though, the point is to see whether a brand new save in a completely clean game folder runs better. There are so many causes of crashing, it's necessary to narrow things down before making any troubleshooting suggestions.
Let me know how the new save runs in the clean folder, and if it still crashes, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.
It didn't crash.
