Thank you for your reply, I also use Avast as my antivirus and last night i decided to uninstall avast completely, that seemed to do the trick 👍🏼
I never had issues with my antivirus before tho and would like to have an antivirus on my PC so i dont know what to do about this in the future.
Not sure if i mentioned earlier but i use the EA app.
Ill see later tonight if removing the antivirus was the permanent solution!
Try reinstalling your Avast. If it happens again look under Avasts Quarantine program and see if Sims4 files are in there. Restore if they are and try running game again
It was Avast for me. I did not need to uninstall anything.
Just start Avast and go to the 'quarantine" section where you ll see your EA folder being held hostage. Just restore and make exception and Sims will run after
