Sims 4 Studio crashing when clicking button. (Solved)

This is the worst time for this to happen since I have a competition for sims 4 due today, but S4S crashes whenever I click the "Make CC" button on the main page.




My Sims 4 is up to date and the application also doesn't crash when I click on any other buttons. I have NVIDIA and Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-9400F CPU as a processor, with 164 GB worth of CC installed and 8GB ram. It sounds like a lot, but S4S has always worked for me regardless in the past and this is after I did some CC cleaning so it's less than it was before. When compared to before this past week when it only took seconds for the "My CC" button to open, it was on the "not responding" error screen for 4 minutes before I decided to exit out of it. I don't have enough time today to keep testing it out.




I checked with windows event viewer and there are multiple crash reports. One says:




The program S4Studio.exe version 3.1.5.8 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Security and Maintenance control panel.

And I've checked every other forum post related to my issue and their possible solutions.


I've deleted S4S before installing the latest version again, updated my drivers, reselected my documents path in settings, reselected blender's path (2.70), repaired Sims 4 on Origin, deleted the localthumbcache file and other temporary files that got corrupted before (Sims 4 is opening fine), I have the correct version of the .NET Framework, restarted my PC.


Please help.
