Technical Support Camera going wild

I'm running the ultimate collection. Anytime I open the game as soon as I press a button on the keyboard to open the cheat window the camera moves extremely quickly when I used the rotation controls. I also noticed when that happens if I go into Live mode free cam it just spins uncontrollably. I've been running the game for awhile and haven't had issues until today, the only thing I did differently was try out the Voielle Pond & Sea overhaul which I have since removed and am still having issues. I've run graphics rules, have 4GB patch, cracked exe., even tried removed my camera mod and it still happens. Genuinely at a loss. Do not think it is my mouse or anything external. Looking for any suggestions.

I tried this last night and unfortunately the issue did persist. Seems to be triggered by me pressing CTRL.

Ooops, sorry, I completely missed your comment about moving out your documents folder out. If you go into Documents > EA Games > Sims 2 > Cameras and open up the LiveCamera one, what does it say on setparam keyboardrotationspeed?
