@476mzdc0jsqa What happens when you try to repair the game? If you get an error, please post a screenshot. And please try restarting your computer just before repairing as well.
I understand you want to play with mods, but I'd also like to know whether you can open the game with no mods present at all, just as a test. So please move the entire Mods folder to the desktop and delete localthumbcache.package, then try to launch it and let me know how it goes.
Thank you for your reply, (and sory for my late one, i cant click on the repair button or origin its sort of dulled out, my game works without mods and with mods in there folder but disabled.
@476mzdc0jsqa The Repair button should be grayed out if you're actually playing, but not otherwise. If you can't click it even when Sims 4 isn't running, and restarting your computer doesn't help, try clearing Origin's cache:

But since your issue goes away with no mods present, it's pretty clear that's the cause. You'll need to test the mods you have to find out which ones are broken. If you have a lot of them, the 50/50 method can make the process much more efficient.
