Re: (The Sims 4) My new game needs repaired??

@brodiebecky  Did you install the game via disc or download it directly from the EA App?  Downloading is much better because you get a fully-updated game right away, and updating such an old version as is on a disc can be unreliable.

Another reason you might need to keep repairing is that your antivirus is quarantining something within the game's program files.  So check the antivirus to see whether there are any recent actions involving Sims 4 or the EA App, and if necessary, add TS4_x64.exe and EADesktop.exe as exceptions.

If neither of these helps, please let me know where you've installed the game.  Open your EA App library, click Sims 4, select Manage > View properties, and you'll see the location there:
