Sims 4 won't load

★★★ Newbie

My Sims 4 game will not load past the loading screen but instead, keep closing down the game which has been happening since the new patch and high school years expansion pack. I took out my mods and CC and the game still keeps doing the same thing which led to me uninstalling the whole game and redownloading it but I am still faced with the same issue can someone help me?

Try doing a factory reset as described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game in a new save.
If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.

@b4yttvjajyg0  if your game keeps unexpectedly shutting down there seems to be an access violation happening if you are in windows10/11 go to the windows start menu and search for Reliability Monitor
