@Flaxelplax  Please uninstall the game with Revo Uninstaller (the free version is fine).  Before doing so, if you have any saves or other user content you'd like to preserve, rename the Sims 3 folder in Documents > Electronic Arts so that Revo doesn't flag it for deletion.  You can restore its original name afterwards.

When reinstalling Sims 3, create a new folder for it.  The folder should be on the root level of the drive of your choice, for example C:\Games is fine, but not C:\Program Files\Games.
