Crashing after Patch 09/27/2016

Skidoodilybop

I just installed the new Patch via Origin, and attempted to start up The Sims 4, only for the game to crash ["The Sims 4 has stopped working"]
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Hello
If you have cc/mods in your game, move your mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and test to see if the issue is still there. If it has helped with the issue, put your mods/ CC back into the newly generated mods folder that is in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing after each one to see which is the causes of the problem.

If the issues still remain, repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.

Try turning off origin in-game and see if that helps. To do that, go,to Game Library in Origin . Right click on The Sims 4 picture. Click on “Game Properties”. Then untick the box that enables origin in-game
