@LolaLikesC4 What might be easiest is if you moved the entire Sims 4 user data folder (the one in Documents\Electronic Arts) to a different location when your sister wanted to play. Doing so will force the game to spawn a clean folder with no content, including no NSFW mods or the sims that have been... benefiting from them. These folders can be swapped back and forth whenever you want, with no harm done; the game will read whichever one is in Documents\Electronic Arts and ignore anything else.

This way, you don't have to worry about removing mods, or the consequences of accidentally loading one of your saves without those mods present. And you can put your sister's Sims 4 folder somewhere else when she's done and move yours back, then swap them again the next time she wants to play.

If your sister has already created saves that she wants to play again, you can copy those saves into the new user data folder after the game creates one. Saves are located in the saves folder, unsurprisingly.
