Sims 4 game wont open after sudden deletion of One drive

Hello! This is a bit of a complicated one, so sorry!

Recently, i accidentally deleted my one drive that, I didn't know had my mods in. After that, every time i try to launch the game, the "preparing game" would pop up, but it sends me back to EA desktop homepage. I tried resetting the app, cache and reinstalling but, the Mods folder nor The sims 4 folder have been able to be made yet, since I haven't been able to play.

    744x8pyex093​  When you day you deleted OneDrive, do you mean you uninstalled it?  If so, the problem may be that Windows didn't move the Documents directory out of the OneDrive folder.  To find out, search in Windows for Command Prompt, open it, and enter this command:

    reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" /v "Personal"

    Then post the result here.
