[CURRENT ISSUE] Anti-Virus blocking User Folder (Screenshots/Gallery/Mods..)

I have been trying everything I can to get this to work. After updating, I get the usual prompt of "Mods Disabled" so I enable them, apply changes and know I have to restart the game for it to work... However, it is STILL showing me the "Disabled Mods" prompt no matter how many times I do it. All my mods are up to date, cache has been cleared, game has been repaired. I'm at a loss. I refuse to play without it and I'm sure the majority of Sims players agree.
