[CURRENT ISSUE] Sims 4 Unable to Start, Game Data Missing or Damaged

Hi, thank you, I had to delete my previous windows install as it was corrupted and upon downloading the new one and attempting to launch the sims after downloading the game, I received an error message that instructed me "cannot start game because the required game data is missing or damaged" I tried to repair the game and restart my computer and the game still would not open and I got the same error message.
