Error code 135dec40: 3fbbecd0: 00000064: 00000000

Hello, yesterday I wanted to start playing the Sims 4 again after being busy for a few months. I just got the new Snowy Escape expansion pack and downloaded the latest patch. When trying to start the game I get this popup though:

Unable to start

Initialization error on startup

[135dec40:3fbbecd0:00000064:00000000]

I already tried everything I could find on the internet to try and fix it, but sadly nothing worked.
I tried:

• fully uninstalling Origin, using CCleaner, install it again
• clean boot
• uninstalling and installing the Sims again
• renaming the Sims 4 folder
• clearing Origin's cache
• making sure Origin and Sims 4 are on the same drive
• updating my drivers
• disabling windows defender

Most likely missed something on that list, but those are the most important things I tried.
