@nim_chimpski @lfnagy @bbysharkie @Lucie995a @arteartemisss and anyone else who comes across this, what antivirus do you use, and does it help to (temporarily) disable it? As long as you don't do anything else at the same time, your computer should be safe, and this is the fastest way to test. You may need to repair the game before launching it, and I would suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the EA App as well with the antivirus disabled.
For anyone who hasn't mentioned it already, please also note whether you're playing through the EA App, Steam, or Epic.
Hi! I figured out what worked for me. Avast has a program called Quarantine where it isolates "potentially harmful" files. I found some of my s4 files under Quarantine. I selected them and restored them and my game booted like normal

This seemed to work for me.
Avast quarantined the files, then let me make and exception. However it still held the files hostage until I went and restored them.
