Ravingbantha Have you cleared the EA App's cache and/or uninstalled and reinstalled it since you unlinked and relinked your Steam and EA Accounts? If not, please do that now. You shouldn't need to reinstall Sims 4; at most, a repair (Steam > Sims 4 > Properties > Installed Files > Verify integrity of game files) should be sufficient, but you can of course reinstall the game if you want.
If you do reinstall Sims 4, I'd suggest doing a clean uninstall, as described here:

But before going through all that effort, try running both Steam and the EA App as an admin: right-click each desktop shortcut and select "Run as administrator." Make sure both have loaded fully before you try to open Sims 4.
So i downloaded and used the Revo uninstaller. However it is not finding Sims 4, even though it is installed, I have verified files in steam, and can launch the game. I think I may know the problem, or at least part of it. I have 2 Hard drives installed on my computer, the D drive is solely for gaming and is where Steam installs all the games D:Steam/Steamapps/Common/<game>
So I am wondering if this is the problem, the EA app would be looking for Sims 4 on the C drive. How do I redirect it?
