Make sure you have the updated NRAAS Traveler from HERE

Any mods always have to be checked for updates anytime you update the game, especially after expansion packs as they tend to change coding.

Before you delete the Sims 3 folder make a copy of the save folder, once you launch the game and it recreates the Sims 3 folder you can close the game and copy the save folder back, overwriting when/if prompted.

Hello,

No, reinstalling and/or re-downloading isn't going to fix crashing issues.
Try step 6: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t4692-game-lag-possible-fixes

When your computer randomly turns off do you notice if it's really hot, or haven't checked, a desktop is more unlikely to then a laptop tho. But still could be a problem.

A topic that has some more info about this is here.
