If that doesn't help, please try playing in a new admin Windows account. Make it a local account, as in, don't sign into Microsoft, and don't sync with any other services you normally use. You'll be able to launch Sims 4 without reinstalling it, but your saves and other content won't be available. That's fine; this is just a test, and if it works, that just means the cause of this error is something specific to your main account, so we know where to look next.
