Can someone please help
renasimmers Since that worked, you can set exceptions in your antivirus so you can use it again but it won't touch Sims 4. Set these exceptions, depending on what you use:
TS4_x64.exe: standard game, DirectX 11 mode
TS4_DX9_x64.exe: DirectX 9 mode
TS4_x64_fpb.exe: Memory Boost mode
EADesktop.exe: EA App, for good measure
Or you can set all these exceptions if you're not sure what you're going to run in the future.
