You will not loose any of your Sims 4 files if you uninstall/reinstall Sims 4. This includes gifted Sims 4 packs.
However, if you're still unsure copy the Sims 4 folder to your desktop or a USB key. Your saved games, mods and custom content will be safe this way.
How to backup the Sims 4 folder:
- Go to the Electronic Arts folder [C:\Users\Username\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4]
- Right-click on the Sims 4 folder and select Copy, and Paste it to the desktop or to a USB key.
After you're finished with the uninstall. Log into Origin with your username and password that you used to register Sims 4 and it's packs with. Go to Game Library to find Sims 4. It should be ready to install with all it's purchased content.
What about if you play on console
