@JYTANTUAN  Do you have any other Steam games installed?  If not, please uninstall Steam with Revo as well, then reinstall it and try again to install and play Sims 4.  If you do have other Steam games, uninstalling Steam will probably remove these games as well, unless you happened to create a different game library for them.  So it's not really a viable approach unless you have no other Steam games or are willing to reinstall those as well.

Please also let me know what antivirus you use.
