My game loads with just my mods in but the moment i add my cc back in i get a failure to launch code! It's incredibly frustrating.

The game gave me, again, the failed to launch error, so I gave your suggestion a try, running it directly from TS4_x64.exe . I ended up entering immediately to the game, no error whatsoever. So it confirms my suspicions: It's not any of my CC or mods, they work correctly in game. The issue must be something related to the EA App and the game when launching, if it were a faulty CC, the game would have loaded and the error would appear when the CC is loading before the main screen.
I also tested going offline in the EA App, and trying to launch the game. Every single time I had success. I don't mind running the game in offline mode, in fact, it runs faster on my machine, but that's not the point, I kinda like to see the gallery from time to time, you know.
after the update i had issues with my game not loading or opening. well after removing my "the sims 4" folder that includes my mods & cc, my game loaded up fine. once i got onto the start screen it said i was offline. i have not been able to get it to go online, meaning i cant see the marketplace, gallery, etc.. which to me, is pointless to play considering i cant use mods, cc or even the gallery.

This was following the last update. It'll show the "Sims 4" screen + loading screen, then nothing. I've repaired my sims a few times, but that doesn't help any.

Im going to try this. My gane opens with most script files and certain CC. I can play fine. But mostly Failure to Launch, especially with CC hair (whether MM or Alpha), clothes (won't load with ANY clothes for me), and CAS items like accessories/lashes/makeup/etc

I also keep getting the failed to launch error message. It usually lets me push through after three attempts. Once I get into the game/CAS it quits. But it doesn't just quit the game it shuts down my whole computer and then requests admin controls to make changes to my computer. It did this three times in a row. After the third time I uninstalled everything, waited a couple days and then reinstalled. I opened a new save file with nothing, and then attempted to start another save file with Mods/CC installed. I was in CAS to make a brand new Sim for a brand new save, and it forced my whole computer system to quit, Then requested admin controls again. I even tried playing offline and the same thing happened.
Okay so I tried this.
Tried to launch what loaded last night and it worked before doing as you suggested. I still did what you suggested after making sure the game loaded with the 23.2GB of mods/cc it did previously. So I had files I knew would load to test with (combination of mods and cc).
Able to launch with newly generated folder no modsable to launch when I copy in tray files
Able to load when I copy save files
loaded cc/mods only from ones that I was able to load up previously one folder at a time and launch the game after each folder. Creating the folders and copying in the files as advised. Failed to launch on the same creator twice and on the third time the game loaded. I have had success with this particular creator in other attempts. Which is why I was using the ones that loaded previously. But my folder size was only at 3.41GB this time when I had the failure to launch.
Edit: Closed game and added in the next creator. Failed to launch. Removed creator, still failed to launch. Removed the previous creator still failed to launch 4 times. Each time I deleted the resource file and refreshed the EA app. I waited 5mins now the games launched.

I did what EA_Solaire said. Sadly didn't work for me. it only launched when my cc was in a folder not labeled mods but then of course that meant the cc didn't work. EA please fix this failed attempt to copy what minecraft did years ago.
