a few problems with my gameplay experince
I find it quite likeable to play The Sims 4, and it annoys me when something is bugging: I had anti-virus (MS Antivirus) warnings preventing me from playing the game except when added the sims 4 fo...

@dragzonox I can try to answer some of this:
1) A lot of antivirus programs have been objecting to Sims 4 since the switch to the EA App. I don't know why, and I don't feel like speculating, but game launchers can be pretty invasive these days.
2) Sims 4 doesn't run perfectly on higher-end hardware. Whether there are things you can do to mitigate the issues depends on what exactly you're seeing, and so I'd like more details: fps rates overall and during drops, what worlds are involved, whether you use mods or custom content, etc.
3) This sounds like a feature rather than a bug. I'm pretty sure tomatoes would object to their roots being buried under concrete in real life too.
4) Does this happen with no mods or custom content present at all? Does it happen in all saves or just the one?
Reinstalling doesn't usually solve these kinds of issues, but if you have a fast internet connection and want to try, go ahead.
As for Sims 4 not being a polished product, no large video game is these days. That's particularly true for games with a lot of content or that allow for lots of player choice and customization, and Sims 4 has both.
2) It's more as micro shutters, they may be noticeable in this gameplay sample* (I don't know how to turn on an in-game FPS counter)
3) But they are in pots, not in the ground - and apple trees and such didn't disappear *
4) I have expansions, but I don't guess that's what you call mods. Except for these expansions, I don't use third-party mods
*Here's some gameplay, with even another bug - a dirty plate hanging out of reach in the air (found a way to delete it)
@dragzonox You can turn on the in-game fps counter with the cheat fps on . The counter will appear in the lower-left corner, over the user interface. Your video looks pretty normal to me, but I obviously can't tell how responsive the game is to your input.
For the tomatoes, I'd create a bug report. I'm not sure whether it would get any traction, but it can't hurt. A video showing the effect would be helpful too.
The dirty plate seems more like a glitch, just something that happens sometimes for various reasons. If this is a relatively rare event, you can just build a room around the plate and delete the room. If it's common, then it would be interesting to know the context, for example is a sim getting interrupted while holding a plate, either in-game (anything from another sim trying to interact with them to your sending them traveling) or when you save or exit to Manage Worlds?
