Could this get any worse?
I deleted the Sims game for the, um 3rd time, then downloaded everything again. Now I am getting this.... 1. I can't get to the main gallery to download a house for my sim since the default houses a...

@katinkamom What happens when you try to login to the Gallery?
For Windows Defender, is Controlled Folder Access enabled, and does it help to disable it? I'm not saying don't use CFA in general, only that this would be a useful test.
Here's what I tried.
1. I had deleted the whole Sims4 folder so there was a scary moment when it didn't show up but anyway, clicking on the gallery icon just shows my gallery, not the Sims4 gallery. I've tried putting in the latest version of MC Commander and it doesn't show up on the sim. About all that's working is my cc hair, makeup and outfits. Kind of depressing since I'm not a good builder so I tried it again this morning, since I had writer's block anyway (trying to finish a sci-fi novel after my editor loved except for the love interest and 'too many characters'. Anyway, I downloaded it again, did not touch the Sims 4 folders and it didn't help, either. I'm getting another antivirus but never had an issue before so....
@katinkamom Are you sure you're working with the correct Sims 4 folder? The fact that you deleted the entire folder but still saw your Library content, if that's the sequence of events (i.e. you didn't restore the folder before viewing your Library), then you didn't remove the folder that the game is actually reading. Here's how to find its location:

The paths must match exactly up to "The Sims 4." If one of them is a bit different, for example one has OneDrive in its path and the other does not, that's the issue, or at least one of them. It would explain why MCCC isn't showing and why the Library content was still present.
I got a new antivirus last night, and yes,, it's the only file I can use but I see your point. I have deleted the game and downloaded it again since then twice so, at this point, I quickly opened it and nope, still no gallery other than my own.
