    @FramboosRoos  When you uninstall Sims 4, your DLC gets uninstalled too.  Your account doesn't lose the content; it's simply removed from your computer until you want to reinstall.

    Your saves and other user data should not be affected, but they can be if you've installed the game itself into Documents > Electronic Arts, thereby mixing the program files and the user data.  If you're worried about this, simply make backups of the critical data in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4.  You'll want to keep the saves and Tray folders, plus UserSettings.ini if you care about the login rewards, and perhaps Screenshots and Recorded Videos.  The rest can be discarded.
